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. |
Let me reiterate for the sake of factualizing info for others who may read and hopefully learn.. The places that sell pets that are "major" suppliers (most of their money is made from selling puppy mill dogs) will
NOT accept any litter of pups off the street...they are contracted by such brokers as HUNTE CORP. (rotten disgusting pukey every bad work I know place that they are) and MUST document each sale so as to meet their contract obligations...blah, blah, blah....sadly often times these Pet Stores bid their contracts out and of course always go with the broker willing to take the least cut...its a dirty business...I guarantee you I am 100% right. Your corner pet supply shop MAY, as I stated earlier, be willing to display a neighborhood litter of pups....I am getting so nauseated here...
