Depending on what state and in what area they are zoned, if they are zoned in an agricultural area, they are considered breeding stock. Sorry folks, but I have followed this issue for many, many years. This is their living and that is how the agricultural department and supervisors in their districts look at it. And unfortunately support them for this is their livelihood. It is a hard and unfortunate reality for us to swallow. Keep supporting those puppies in the pet stores. Unfortunately, our buyers will never become educated, because they don't want to. |
