Yes, in some cases, but not always. According to a website I found about puppy mills "no one knows, for sure, what happens to the puppies at the puppy stores, but the options are limited and bleak: they may be shipped back to the mill to be used for breeding; they may be sold to laboratories as test subjects; they may appear in classified ads; they may be abandoned at the side of the road; and, they may be killed".
