Yes, this is true but unless I'm reading it wrong isn't Petland donating the pups to the sick children? If that's the case then my suggestion would give Petland another alternative other then using a store that gets their pups from mills. MAW is not going to use funds to buy a pup if they are getting a pup for from from Petland. It comes down to dollar and cents and not necessarily where that pup came from. Elaine
