That's awful. Haven't clicked on any of the links but have signed the petition.

A petition has just begun to stop this practice:

Stupid, unthinking animal cruelty.
These places need to be shut down and the puppies found good homes well away from anyone who has anything to do with this business including the customers.

I typed out a long, very angry, post and it has disappeared.
Try again.

This is appalling, puppies bred and taken away from their mothers at six weeks. Enduring up to ten sessions of yoga a day, deprived of water and sleep, all for the enjoyment of very stupid, self-indulgent people with more money than sense.

These place must be shut down and the practice should be stopped immediately.
It's utter cruelty.

Does anyone have any experience of this?
It seems a frightful growing trend.
