When I looked at Yorkies before I got Stewie, I didnt have anything to compare them to as I had never really seen a Yorkie in person, so I went to Petland just to look @ the Yorkies to see how they looked compared to the ones I had seen @ breeders homes. They were cute babies, but Jesus, give me a break. One was 1700. I don't know how people could just walk in and get a dog without even thinking about where they came from. I love to go into Pet stores to ask the staff where the dogs are from. They always squirm and then say "ohhh from a local breeder!!!" My butt. I can't wait until this country starts caring about animals and shuts those idiot puppy millers down for good!
But like mama said, there's a sucker born every minute so nothing will probably ever happen. People will ALWAYS feel sorry for puppies in cages and ALWAYS think they are rescuing them. We can dream, cant we?!
Also, I don't support any pet supplies store that sells animals. When you buy ANYTHING there, you are allowing them to buy more puppies from the millers and have them shipped for hours on semis to their store. Sickening. |
I agree with everything you said!
my friend, Jess, and I had like a 2 hour conversation on this last night. She was saying things like, "but if they have a good hom blah blah blah" so then I went through the step-by-step of everything. She ended up agreeing with me...sort of. well...more than she did before. she knows that puppy mills are bad but..I dunno. I guess she just doesn't realize that even people who buy just one dog are helping to support the buisness.
