I think it's a very narrow path, this Pet Store thing. For instance, on one hand I by all means see the point in not buying from them because it supports puppy mills. But then on the other hand let's say I was in a pet store picking up something for my baby and they just happened to have a Yorkie for sale. I will admit that even knowing what I know I am doubting that I could walk out of there without buying that baby because at least then I would know he/she was going to a good home and would be loved unconditionally. I don't know but for me I tend to lean toward looking at buying from a pet store as a form of rescue. Those babies didn't ask to be born and raised in puppy mills.
Now that I have said all that WELCOME to YT and congrats on your new baby. Please don't feel outcasted because of others beliefs. There are tons of knowledgable here that are always willing to help.
