Dr. Franklin D. McMIllan received his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Ohio State University, college of veterinary medicine. He is a member of Phi Zeta Veterinary Honor Society, and is the director of well-being studies at Best Friends Animal Society, Kanab, Utah. His responsibilities include, designing and conducting studies on psychological trauma and methods of assessing mental health and emotional well-being also field rescue operations and teaching of interns. His volunteer service includes, Hurricane Katrina Relief where he was involved in rescuing and treating the victims of the storm. He is the author of several books and professional publications addressing issues concerning the emotional feelings that hold the key to an animal’s health and happiness.

A landmark new study finds that dogs used for breeding in large- scale commercial breeding operations (aka “puppy mills”) are psychologically harmed and show the effects for years after they leave the breeding facility. Dr. Frank McMillan, lead researcher of the study and director of well-being studies for Best Friends, worked in collaboration with Doctors James Serpall and Deborah Duffy, and the study was done by a national animal welfare organization and will be published in the journal Applied Animal Behavior Science. Dr. McMillan said “ we always suspected the dogs in these facilities suffer emotionally because of the abnormal behaviors they show when they get out, but we can now scientifically confirm how truly destructive these places are for the dogs kept in them.”
