I agree!
My 'no pet store sell' list is much longer though,
1. Dogs
2. Cats
3. Chinchillas as most come from "chin farms" which are just the equivalent to pup mills not to mention pet stores fail to provide them with adequate diet, cages, and understanding they are nocturnal.
4. I've issues with many "exotic" pets reptiles, rodents etc, that can not only be invasive species surviving in the wild habitats they are transported to causing serious health, safety and environmental issues: but are part of major animal trafficking organizations involving various types of criminals, and often are taken directly from the wild bred indiscriminately, abused, off spring bred in captivity excessively tortured and or sold in stores as pets...
5. oh I could go on...
FEDS is Canada though too?
Are you English by chance I noted you used the phrase "full stop" not a typical French Canadian trait...I'm just nosy.

No reputable breeder will knowingly allow their precious puppies to be sold in a pet store. |
