| Does PETCO sell puppies? Due to a tooth that broke more than in half friday afternoon and exposed the pulp/root, and the entire right side of my face being swollen & me looking something like the elephant man...I'm not setting foot outside my house until I leave for my dental appt monday at lunchtime! Anyway...bored as can be & pumped up on penicillin & vicodin, I've watched old movies and read all the latest online news. I came across an article about Kim Kardashian getting a puppy at PETCO. I was suprised because I didn't think PETCO sold dogs. I don't want to support a store that supports puppymills. Does anyone know anything about PETCO selling puppies? Kim Kardashian shows she's closer than ever with fiancé Kris Humphries as they buy a new puppy amid cheating claims | Mail Online

| Too tired to open the link. lol But are you sure it wasn't one being sold at their store by a rescue? I know we have cats at the Petcos in Michigan, but they are up for adoption and aren't bred for Petco.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | From the article is seems like she purchased it at Petco but the dog looks more like an older rescue rather than than a puppy from a pet store. Lets hope.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I had to laugh when I read that Kim was asking if it was sanitary to sleep with her new yorkie. "How do u guys feel about dogs sleeping in the bed with you? Is it sanitary? My personal feeling is no, but I'm having a debate," she asked her followers on Twitter." Is she worried about the Yorkie getting something, or it making her sick? Anyway, according to this site Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries Get a Puppy! | Gather "The dog definitely didn't look like a puppy, and it's very possible that the couple adopted him/her from a local shelter." Petco does have adoptions, so it's possible she adopted him there, if that's true, all I can say, is "Way to go Kim!"

| The Petco in my neighborhood has adoption days. I can't remember with which shelter. But so do many dog stores in my area.

| That's not a puppy. I am going to venture that it's a rescue. He's very cute!

| I'm sure she adopted it. I just saw an episode yesterday of Keeping Up With The Kardashians where she found a chihuahua and took it in, etc. At the end, she made a note to say rescue or adopt at your local shelter. He's a cutie though!

| Anyway, that's definitely not a puppy. He/she is very cute and probably came from a rescue. Petco has adoption days a lot for local shelters and rescues.
