San Diego PASSES PET STORE BAN!

[mimimomo]

I read about this & so happy it passed, hope all other cities & states follow. Nancy brought up a not so good point of this happening tho...that puppy millers will turn to online sales to make $$$ which is far worse bc they are not regulated.

True...online sellers aren't regulated. But hopefully potential buyers will find information on reputable breeders once they start their internet search. I found YT when I was searching for my first Yorkie I need to research about how to get this done in my city. It's a great first step!!

I actually spoke out loud when I read this statement: "This has got to stop. This movement of accusing every single breeder having pet stores as puppy mills is absolutely ridiculous," said David Salinas of San Diego Puppy Inc.

That place has gotten ripped to shreds on yelp.

San Diego Puppy - Grantville - San Diego, CA

David Salinas sounds like a real douchebag.
