They just opened a puppy store In Winchester called the Puppy Cottage. They have their puppies in cribs up high where you have to ask to hold one. They have little collars on them with the breed and prices on them. I held the little yorkie, he was $1400 and the maltese was $1600. My friend asked where they get all the puppies from. The lady said "from breeders that keep them in there homes, they are not puppy mill dogs. I see the look on your face." We were like yeah right! It makes me mad because we didn't have other stores that sell puppies around here. Rescues and shelters take their dogs to Petsmart and Petco. Now we have a puppy store. I don't think it will last. I don't think a lot of people around here will pay that much for dogs.Also with all the publicity that puppymills are getting I hope people don't buy from them. |
