being from PA and living about 1 hour away from lancaster, this is a great site!
i use to have a motorcycle and i would ride threw lancaster a lot...and this is a true thing, there would be hand painted signs saying puppies for sale, and there are a lot of them...i stopped at one of the farms that had a sign up about rottie pups for sale, my curiousity had reached its peek and i wanted to look at these pups....
i was sickend when this amish guy came out, i asked him about the pups that where for sale, and he took me to see them, they where in the barn, no heat, on concrete floor, all skinny and sickly looking, goopy eyes, sneezing and just plan sad looking, no food or water in the stall with them...its was sicking, and i being my normal suttle self (not) went off! I was not looking to get another dog, but curious to see...wish i hadnt...i told him that the conditions where horrid, and the dogs where sick! ofcourse he told me they had just seen a vet..all the stories...lies!
he wanted 700 dollars for these pups...i hopped back on my bike, got the address went down the road and called animal control..im not sure if anyone came out, but i rode past there a lot and never saw another sign...
it makes me sick, and i know there are tons more out there....but not only in lancaster but out where i grew up too, right up the street...they are all over....
