There is a pet store here that has quite a few puppies. They even went so far as to tell the public to buy from them and not a breeder as they were better!!  It just infuriates me!! 
I just wish that more people would realize that if you "rescue one" another will still takes it place keeping the cycle going, keeping the suffering going. |
I never knew about puppy mills. My father used to say never to get a pet store pup because they would get the puppies that breeders couldn't sell for whatever reason, you'd never get a real good dog...the puppy mill stuff is in a league all by itself...and much worse than just getting a puppy that couldn't sell. Also, you can go to a breeder and still get a puppy mill...it's so hard because people have mills in their homes now???? You think you're going to a home based breeder but you're actually going to a mill in someones house????? I sometimes feel like you just can't win!!!!!!!!!!! Unless you inspect someone's home from the cellar up how do you know what's going on...The "breeder" I got Ksena from (who looks like a mill puppy) went so far as to say her aunt wouldn't let me see the litter before they had their shots because she was so overprotective....breeder-pet store, sometimes they're the same....I know not always but it seems more likely than not...I'm getting a headache thinking about this again....Did I go way off the subject....oops!
Does anyone know what happens if they don't sell? Now I really want to know? My guess would be the pound?????
