While my personal opinion will never change, I do respect all of your decisions as well. I am no different than you - I purchased my Yorkie from a pet store, and my chihuahua from a backyard breeder. I just happened to have a life changing event that placed me where I am today in the world of puppy mills, and there is no going back for me. Maybe some of you will be in this same position later in your life - maybe not. But either way, I will ask this; the next time you are wanting to add a new dog to your family, consider adopting/rescuing, or purchase only from a proven, well known, reputable breeder.
Lastly, for those that would like to know more about puppy mills and the pet shop/internet/backyard breeder connection, visit my website.
