I would hope to find a nice breeder like that for the Chi pup as well..
As far as price goes they wanted 650$ for him.. I don't currently know how much they go for but like i did with my new baby i will do all the research i can about them.. I hope i can come across a nice forum like this one.. |
Pet Stores ALWAYS say they get their puppies from a breeder...do you honestly think they'd admit to getting them from a puppymill??? They wouldn't sell any puppies if they admitted that. And if you think about it, puppy mills ARE breeders so they aren't lying to you. I promise you - NO REPUTABLE BREEDER WILL EVER SELL THEIR PUPPIES TO A PET STORE! Please do not buy puppies from a petstore - you will only be supporting backyard breeders and puppymills. And who knows what problems that poor puppy could end up with later in life - both behavioral and health-wise. Reputable breeders care where their puppies end up - breeders that sell to petstores are only in it for the money - they don't know or care where their puppies end up. All puppies are cute and I know it's hard to say no to those cute faces, but please buy from a reputable breeder.
