Maybe not from where your from but, yes there are pet stores that take in unwanted litters of pups and sell them. There aren't any around here any more but there were.

NO I dont' think so, never! I put a lot of time and effort into asking the right questions and into finding great homes for all of my pups. It is my goal to see to it that each family is the perfect fit and can handle the addition of a new pup to the mix. I do several interviews before even accepting a deposit to hold one of my pups.
Just to put this to rest I will tell you why some pups in pet stored are not always from puppy mills. It is because some are mixed breed pups that came from an every day home, where the family pet got nocked up by a stray dog or an un neutered house mate or however the pregnancy occurred.
Some of you took what I said and got all defensive. You didn't even consider the fact that what I said was possible that there could be another reason why pet shops have different types of pups in them. So,
'yes" Not all pet shops deal with pure breed dogs and
not all of them come from puppy mills but, just irresponsible owners!
I have had pups from those type of pet store...both pure breed and not so I know.
