| Petco doesn't sell dogs, they actually help adopt. They are a really good store. |

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | LOL there is an icon of a blue guy peeking out from under a chair but this site doesn't have it. Don't worry it will all be ok.

| They do not sell dogs but they do sell little furry creatures, birds and fish. I would guess that these animals come from settings similar to puppy mills but don't know for sure.

| We do have a couple of Petlands here in B.C.--two within reasonable driving distance from me. And I see there are two locations listed in Ontario. And they do sell dogs. As for Petco's, I've only spotted them across the border on the US side. It's great you that you don't need to cancel your subscription! |

| Good for you for sticking up for these poor defenseless animals. It's ok to be mistaken, we are all human. But bless you for being so passionate about this cause.

| I am so glad that California does NOT have any Petlands Petco's and Petsmarts, all have adoption days every weekend inside their stores. they carefully screen perspective new owners. It is a wonderful program. I typically have seen plenty of cats and kittens, with many larger bred dogs . All of those places keep a small section off kitties up for adoption inside the store too. I go and look at them and they are always very well kept.
