I got RU our first furbaby at a breeders that was actually a "pet store" and he was sick with pnemonia for six weeks after that! He's been the love of my life! But I did write a lot of reviews about the place and later they were actually in the news for buying from Puppy Mills and RU did come from MO.

I agree you should try doing something about the rest of the poor little animals at the store, call the local paper or newsstation, go on the web site for the store and write a review. I can understand why some people see it as support for puppy mills but you saved a life! You're a very special person!
I entered "Palm Beach Puppies" into the google search and now I see that everyone, including the news media is aware that there is a problem at this store (Wellington) and the sister store in Boca Raton. I was unaware and went there with a friend who was searching for small size sweaters for her two yorkies. We had already been to every Petsmart, PetCo, PetSupermarket and several other Pet stores in the area, and we were both unaware of the controversy surrounding this store. You are right, I did end up purchasing a puppy that I didn't really plan on getting, for too much of my hard earned money. I live in a condo with a one dog limit and I am already over that limit with Patrick and my rescued silkie terrier, Niko. But I have more sensitivity than sense when it comes to any animal in distress. Why is this store still open? I am baffled.
