I would have to disagree with you "saving her". Although she is adorable any purchase from a pet store with the knowledge that you obviously have is only perpetuating the suffering of all of the breeding machines left at the mills.

I'm sure that on any given day that I could walk into a pet shop and purchase a sick puppy and call it rescue/saving and for that reason I do not and will not step into those type of businesses. Even by purchasing a dog treat from a place that sells puppies is supporting puppy mill.

My suggestion would be to take a look at this thread and better arm yourself with knowledge.

Do you realize that in Missouri alone there are 200,000 breeders locked in cages pumping out puppies?!!!? To me that is just shocking that in just one state there is almost a quarter MILLION dogs. That alone is enough to stop anyone in their tracks.

I do not mean to take the happiness of a new puppy away from you but felt that I should have a voice of all those that do not.
