However, I think this was a little harsh, esp. considering you went against what everyone told you here on YT yourself and got your dog from a BYB anyways. So I really think you should understand of all people when you fall in love with a puppy that you probably should NOT be getting (because by purchasing from a BYB, you are also putting $$$ in their pockets and allowing them to breed more dogs). Sooo... I don't know, that comment just seemed a little hypocritcal because if I remember correctly, you were pretty pissed off at alot of people for telling you the truth about where your pup was coming from.
Mom2Kobe, congrats on your new pup. I stopped going into pet stores (luckily, the 2 close to me are closed down!  ) because it's too hard to resist. The puppies are innocent, but I would not put my money into the pockets of such nasty people. I even stopped bringing Jackson to his groomer because they sold puppies in the place and I did not want any of my $$$ going to such a thing. |
i know i did the wrong thing with Sadie and i got a lot of crap for it. NO ONE held back their harshness or unkind words to me when i did that and guess what i LEARNED my lesson and would never do that again...this is a person who apparently KNEW exactly what they just did and that they just supported a breeder filling up that spot again...they did it anyways. I didn't understand the weight of what i was doing until it was long overwith and then it finally clicked in. i didn't do something KNOWING full well what i was doing like this person did. so no i will not hold back my harshness on her anymore than any veteran held back theirs on me...sometimes that's what it takes to get the point across. i'm not going to support and rejoice with a person that willingly supports a puppy mill.
