I can also totally understand the desire of many to rescue that little face behind the bars of the cage in the pet store....to give that 'one' little pup a home with lots of love and kindness.
The only problem is, once that pup is purchased, another one has to be bred to take it's place. The cycle relies 100% on our desire to help that 'one' little pup. If we all stopped doing business at these stores...stopped buying these pups, then mills would have few places to sell to.
I agree that there should be a law that forbids stores from selling puppies/dogs/cats, etc., but I don't know if that's going to happen any time soon. Sometimes it comes down to the public just saying 'NO WAY ARE WE GOING TO BUY PUPPIES FROM PETSTORES ANYMORE!!!'
Villette, thank you so much for spreading the word.
