On the one hand, they are giving the dogs a better life, but on the other hand, it seems like it would just help the puppy mill continue to survive by letting them offload unwanted dogs (and sometimes even make some money).
ETA: sometimes rescues will pay them a smaller amount to get them to release dogs that they aren’t willing to release to the rescue for free.

The rescues I’ve worked with won’t take dogs directly from the breeder at all, as they don’t want to encourage anything. They instead have a direct line to the shelter and know when these dogs come in and they can rescue them.
