Don't get down on yourself for not knowing any better, enjoy your little guy and he will give you unconditional love regardless of where he came from. I didn't know until being here that pet stores bought from puppymills. I never bought from one because their prices are ridiculous. I missed many red flags with my first Yorkie, and then with my second and knowing what to watch out for I still seemed to have blinders on. Now I know I will only get any future yorkies from someone that comes recommended. I went to a pet land (infamous for puppy mill dogs) when I was looking just so I could hold and get a close look at one before making my final decision. I had to listen to their sales pitches in order to even see the puppy and one of the things they say is that they get their puppies from breeders not puppymills, it is really sad that most of their employees are very young and they are learning that the way to do business is to mislead the consumer.. so wrong |
