<start my personal opinion here> I'm glad you did not get him. I too would totally feel sorry for the poor little things but you just encourage puppymillers to keep pumping the puppies out if they are selling them. The way to hurt puppymillers is to hit their checkbook.. if their puppies don't sell then they don't make money which means they won't churn out all the puppies. I also think if you had gotten him you would have probably have set yourself up for a lifetime of potential problems. Puppymill dogs are genetic time bombs.. they may look fine now but most genetic issues don't present themselves until the dog turns about 3 or 4. Stay strong, you made the right decision. <end opinion>
