You are right she asked a question but at the same time she was trying to validate her puppy, which leads me to think she already knew the answer but was hoping for some type of acceptance. So perhaps instead of turning this thread into the horrors of pet stores and puppy mills a simple reply like yes most pet stores get their dogs from puppy mills, so pay close attention to your dog's health and if you decide to purchase another dog you might be better off looking for an honest breeder, would have been a little nicer. I do notice she has not been back to comment so that tells me she might not be feeling a lot of love. |
Yes I see but she did get a mixture of replies and there was acceptance for her pup. I do see what you are saying but in the interest of educating not only her but many more that are reading you cant not get the info about puppymills in a thread like this especially with the questions she asked. We are reaching a whole forum full of people and guests that read these threads
