the top breeders for that purphase you stand a chance of getting a pup with
problems. Worms, LP, grows to large etc. I read it over and over. I wish all
puppymills would be forced to close down so the bred dogs could be saved but it is not the puppy's fault and they deserve a loving home.

I agree that the puppies need good loving homes...and, you are right....you can get a sick pup from a breeder as well as a pet store...However, it's the condition's that these animals are kept in..the fact that they are bred over and over and over until they are worn out....living in their own waste, puppies received to the stores with Parvo, some puppies never make it out of the wooden box alive. Not getting the care they should....and buying a puppy from a pet store just keeps the Puppy Mills in business....Someone on YT,a while ago, had sent a site that showed puppy mills....maybe if you saw one you would change your mind about pet stores....
