I think it's equally important to point out that just bc a pup is priced high, it doesn't mean it's more special, or healthy. Those are the same people who scam the rich and clueless (or careless) like Paris Hilton. They want their dog to be a status symbol, so the more money spent, the better right?
The sad thing about the new legislation they are trying to pass, is it indeed only hurts those responsible breeders who follow laws and rules. Do you think that puppymillers who have no conscience and no morals will all of a sudden stop doing what they are doing bc there are new laws? Of course not! They will just ignore the laws like they are doing now. Just like the gun debate. Making it harder for law abiding citizens to get guns is not going to make the criminals stop getting their guns illegally. It's absolute crazyness!
