| Wow I can't believe that I always thought I was safe by shopping at petsmart because it seems like such a caring environment. I guess I was sadly mistaken.

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | Shocked the beejeebus out of me when I saw the posting as well. Very disgusting that a store that caters to animals and the people that love them function like that.

| I completed and submitted the form. Isn't there some kind of animal cruelty law that could take affect here??? It just seems odd that they're not getting in trouble over this.

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | This whole thing is just so sad. There is a local pet store in my area. This kid that used to work there told my BIL that at night they sedate the yappy pups so that they won't disturb the neighbors. It's a horrible thing to think about. You just never know about these places and people. Sad how it just is always about the all mighty buck. They are not going to spend money to take a hamster that they are selling for what $8 to the vet. Bottom line to these people are the dollars that they can make to pay for those expensive materialistic things that they need.

| really disgusted omg this is apalling. there was a thread the other day, im so sorry i forget who posted it, but they were talking about the awful condition of a lab and chi puppies who were sickly and being offered as ready for sale. They said that when they brought the employee over and angrily pointed out his eye infection, he was whisked away downstairs.... DID THAT PET STORE HAVE THE SAME "SICK ROOM" HIDDEN AWAY?????? i'm really hoping this is not a common practice, but the more I hear, the less I believe in good faith towards these pet shops. what the hell is going on?? |
