Heart breaking is right. So sad. I hate pet stores that sell puppy mill babies ! I was at the Dog Pound and got angry at a person who was there to adopt a puppy. I started a thread yesterday about rescue / shelter dogs. I was curious to see what others thought. The whole idea was set off by a conversation with someone. I was so up set with their thinking. When ask regular questions like, do you have other pets , age of children etc. She got very angry and thought that stuff was none of their business. When told the cost of the puppy and spay requirement, she said,' You gotta be kidding, it is a mutt and you otta be glad somebody would want it. Sixtyfive dollars for a spay forget it." I tell you I am known to be easy going and rarely show my temper. I was livid ! I wanted to really go off on her. I said to my companion I wouldn't trust her to water a plant, never mind give her a puppy ! GRRRR Most of us spend more than that, on flea & heart worm prevention .
