Well guess what? Yelp removed my review AGAIN for this Puppy Store place.
I got this email this morning:
"We wanted to let you know that we've removed your review of The Puppy Store. Our Support team has determined that it falls outside our Content Guidelines (
Content Guidelines | Yelp) because it is not primarily relevant to a consumer experience. When reviewing, please describe your actual experience with a business.
We hope you will continue to participate on Yelp while keeping our Content Guidelines in mind."
My review:
This place is pretending to be a rescue. It's not. You can go to the shelter and adopt one of these types of dogs for around a $100 or less, yet these people are selling dogs (probably also from the shelter) for hundreds more! If this place was ONLY rescue dogs, I might believe it. But the fact they sell puppies (mixed breeds at that) from out of state, and non AKC registered, screams to me they are from puppymills.
Not only that, the other merchandise is overpriced, the staff does not greet you, and if you buy anything from shops that sell puppies you are supporting them and in turn puppymills.
I was actually IN the store. Just bc I didn't spend money there means I don't have a legit review? There are plenty of places that I haven't spent money but know that I wouldn't do business with them, and certainly enough to write a review! Out of all my reviews, only the ones about pet shops that sell dogs have been removed. Hmmmm.
