dc.description.abstract	The puppy mill industry involves the relentless overbreeding of dogs in an unethical manner which poses significant threats to animal welfare, the integrity of the gene pool and public health. This thesis investigates the legislation in place in different European countries and the need for legislation to combat overbreeding and regulate commercial sales and the illegal puppy trade. These laws protect animals from cruelty, encouraging responsible breeding practices while reducing pressure on animal shelters and promoting public awareness.	en_US
