If you are adopting a puppy mill dog - there is a higher possibility that you might have issues down the line.
Most of these dogs have severe lung issues due to the ammonia they’ve lived in all of their lives and a lot develop tumors etc. at an early age. A lot of them do have deformities due the crates or battery cages they lived in all their lives.
Here is a little piece one of the Humane Society workers wrote about caring for puppy mill dogs.

It does sound like her foster did an incredible job at rehabilitating her if she is housebroken.
It really is a special kind of person who adopts puppy mill dogs! Good luck
