Again, I have found the store to be knowledgeable and great---and VERY different from how you are portraying them. There was even a positive article about them in a local magazine: 04/10/2007 - Passion for puppies prompts partners - VIEW NEWS: A Neighborhood Newspaper |
You do realize that pet stores get their pups from mills regardless of what they say, right? Have you see the Oprah special? Plus they sell pups at 8 weeks. That's 4 weeks too early! I can't believe you are defending a pet store. No matter how clean they are doesn't mean they sell healthy pups.
I got my Yorkie at a pet store too. They were very nice, knowledgeable about care, and I have a healthy, wonderful pup. BUT...I've since learned about pet stores, and would never recommend the one I got my pup from. Nor would I recommend any other one. Not to mention they are way over priced! I could have gotten a show prospect from a reputable breeder for what I paid for Baby. I even remember they had a sign that says they don't get their pups from mills. Well, they twisted the truth. They got my Baby from Lambriar Kennels. Technically, they are not a breeding mill, but a place to house pups. But where did Lambriar get my Baby? At a freaking mill! I researched her "greeder" and they were sited for some nasty crap and too many dogs at their place. I hate to think what Baby's mom, dad, siblings, and family have to live in.
