Not ALL breeders are bad! There seems to be a misconception and it usually comes from these broad over generalizations. |
I guess I'll repeat myself too - the vast MAJORITY of Pet Stores SELL MILL PUPPIES - where on EARTH do you think that kind of volume of puppies come from - the puppy fairy ???
and Brenda - you're right and I liked your post - I do agree you'll find mom and pop places out there who actually know where their puppies come from but I have THREE pet stores near me and I can almost positivily state they would NOT share their supplier - even if I asked them - they buy from mills ...period. Even if they DID share where they got their puppies from - how would anyone know if it were a mill or not ? Lots of MILLS have very nice names and no one would dream what they really do for a living.
