How do we know the dogs are suffering? How do you know they're not? If the puppies are lucky, most of them will end up in a decent home. Do you think the only people who purchase these puppies are decent homes, no, more puppy millers and even people who mistreat dogs. Nobody knows or cares where they end up at a petstore. Everybody loves a puppy....but what about their moms and dad's that you don't see?
If you read what you've written, you'll have read something more ridiculous than what I wrote, not that I'm admitting what I wrote was ridiculous.

If people don't buy from the pet stores, the puppy mills will cease to exist. If puppy mills cease to exist who'll supply the puppies.

Think of what's happening with illegal drugs. I wonder how many taxpayer dollars have been spent dealing with this issue, and it's not even close to being resloved.

Anyway, the only issue I have is not sticking to the facts on this thread.
