I found out one of the pups was from Still Kennels. So I called Still kennels and spoke to Gloria. She was very nice, I also sent her the Picture of her very sick puppy I bought. Since then we email eachother and became email friends. She is really not a bad person. taking care of that many dogs is alot of work and thier income. She really helped me when I welped my first litter of yorkes. She knows alot about breeding and welping dogs. Not all her dogs are sick. sometimes in transport they get sick and being with other puppies weakens thier immune system. Now do not get me wrong-I do not support puppy mills. But when it comes down to it she is a wonderful and caring person. |
Ok I am really confused. Still Kennels sells to Petland pet store where everyone knows they get their dogs from puppymills and these suppliers have no idea what happens to their puppies once they leave nor do they know anything about the possible homes they get or if the person buying them from the pet store knows anything about their care.
If you watch the videos of these poor souls how they are raised and transported to these pet stores of course in transport they get sick and I would like to see the statistics of how many die enroute. You also said "taking care of that many dogs is alot of work and thier income. "
So which part of this scenario makes Still Kennels a wonderful and caring person not only earning a living off the backs of some little dogs but also churning out so many they are sold by the truckload?
Trust me, none of my dogs or puppies would ever be trucked to a pet store or anywhere else or flown anywhere or sold off a website.
