A few years ago, I would have been happy about this, but now they just sell them directly over the internet. The bad news is that dogs sold in pet stores must be from kennels that are inspected, however, dogs sold over the internet need not be from kennels that have ever had any inspections. So closing down the petstores doesn't really help with puppy mills, we must change the laws regarding kennel conditions and also inform everyone to always visit the breeder's home in person. Don't buy directly over the internet, you are sure to be buying from a puppy mill. |
