I feel sick for you and even sicker knowing you bought a puppy from Petland...I'm SO SORRY. I don't know what to say but you have my sincere sympathy.

JUST so you know - Petland is the biggest buyer of Puppy Mill dogs - if you search the net you can read more about them....no one should have to go thru what you're going thru...


Edited - So you don't have to search - This is just a sample of the websites about Petland and Mills...I know you're upset right now and rightly so - but this may help you IF you have to deal with that awful Pet Store....and I hope you don't need further contact because I hope she lives. But it doesn't sound good from what you just posted...

I'm so so sorry about your little puppy.

Puppymills are large breeding facilities were the breeding dogs are kept as live stock, locked in cages 24/ 7 with no medical care or love, just being breed everytime a female comes into heat. Mills often have several different breeds of dogs and has no care for the health of the dogs that they are breeding or the puppies.

The millers harvest the puppies before they are old enough to leave their mothers and sell them to brokers like Hunte Corp. Hunte Corp purchases them for as little as $25 a puppy, so the millers have to produce as many as possible and keep cost down in order to make money.

Hunte Corp then ships the puppies to their head quarters where the puppies get their 1st vet visit. After the visit they are loaded into large semi-trucks and shipped all over the United States ending up in pet stores like Petland.

Petland is this countries biggest buyer of Puppy Mill dogs. There are no 'breeders' suppling Petland with dogs - Puppy Mills supply Petlands dogs and I wish they were BANNED from selling them
