[Ilovebaby]

OKay well I have been waiting to post this for awhile because I thought it was really maybe too sad. But I have decided that it can just help raise awareness! On Monday I went to Chicago...(actually Gurnee, IL) to pick up by best friend who had been living there.
She worked at a local Applebees and had moved in with a woman she worked with there, and her husband who works at a Petland nearby. (I can't remember what the name of the city that the Petland was in, but it was like 10 minutes from Gurnee.) So she wanted her mom and I to go to Petland to see all of the cute puppies. I of course told them about puppymills on the way and told them of the horror story someone here on YT had shared about a sick yorkie in a Petland. My friend is a huge Bulldog lover so she played with their english bulldog and their french bulldog; both of which had colds. That right there put up another big red flag to me. Plus, several other of their dogs had a green snot coming from their noses. So this was sad. And, there was a yorkie, however, he was sold so they would not let me hold him. He looked a lot like a yokrie-chi mix, and didn't really do much walking around.
BUT ANWAYS! Sorry to get sidetracked on my story. So we left the store and later that night my friend went to say goodbye to her friend and her husband. I didn't go, but when she got home she told me a horrible story. The woman's husband (who works at Petland) told my friend about a Jack Russel who he figured would die by the time he got back to work in the morning. He told her that it had vomited up a parasite with blood and that they didn't expect it to live until morning.
THis seriously upsets me. They didn't even do anything to help that poor baby. I mean this is a puppy suffering. This is how places like this operate. They are all out to make a buck. I'm sure if they don't care about one puppy having a deadly parasite they don't care about the others. So moral of the story; WE CAN NOT SUPPORT PLACES LIKE THIS!!!!!!! I know most everyone on YT knows, but sometimes hearing real life experiences can serve as a nasty refresher.
Thanks for reading my horribly long post, but i just wanted to let you all know the details. I felt like i was an investigator while in this store. I was taking mental notes of all the things i was seeing bad. I hope one day we can, as a society put a stop to this practice of animal cruelty!
