Truth about the Pet Trade
Hunte Corporation's President Embraced By GSD Club And AKC
February 4, 2007 : 12:00 AM
The German Shepherd Dog Club of America has voted 9 to 8 to welcome Andrew Hunte of Hunte Corporation as a member.
Why is this important? Hunte Corp. is the largest US wholesaler of puppies sold in pet shops. Hunte is a distributor of puppies from puppy mills.
A significant portion of the membership of GSD Club of America objected to the offer of membership to Hunte.
Hunte was allowed an unusual secret meeting with the GSD Club Board in order to rebut members' objections. He brought them Hunte Corp. logoed items as gifts.
Hunte was overheard bragging about his new incinerator. The incinerator will apparently replace the large ditch at the back of Hunte Corp.'s property, which is now where they shovel dead dogs and puppies who finally die after gross mistreatment and abuse in puppy mills.
As one observer put it, "[T]he [GSD Club] Board voted, the result being that the man who holds the distinction of being the nation’s largest distributor of puppy mill produce is now a member of one of the largest (and formerly, most respected) breed clubs in the country. ...There seems to have been some discussion in defense of Hunte which proclaimed him as 'he is not a puppy miller, just a broker.'"
Indeed, AKC has approved of the Hunte Corporation probably because it is said to generate nearly a million registrations per year.
