Missouri is home to 22 of the 100 puppy mills on the Humane Society's most recent list of known problem dealers, topping the list for the seventh year in a row. Released last week, the “Horrible Hundred” report highlights animal-welfare issues including high puppy death rates, underweight dogs, neglected health needs and other problems. Guest host Sharon Stevens discusses the topic with Sarah Javier, president and executive director of the Animal Protective Association of Missouri, and John Goodwin, senior director of the Humane Society's Stop Puppy Mills Campaign.
