These puppies were way to small for a wired bottom, IMO.  |
Those wire cages are HORRIBLE on a dogs feet & probably their emotions too.
Why someone would put a dog on WIRE is because they're TOO LAZY TO CLEAN UP on a regular basis.
I think it's like torturing a dog to keep them in a wire cage ....making them stand / sleep and eat on bare wire.... it must hurt so much....
I'm against pet stores but walked into one near where I just moved thinking it was like PEtsmart - they had 5 puppies in a big 'enclosure' (CAGE) but it had NO wires and they actually were playing....but that's not the norm for dogs in cages.
