| Re: New Type of "Petstore"- ugh I really don't understand why it isn't illegal here.
My god there are so many wonderful dogs and pups already available and waiting to go to good homes in more low scale pet stores (they're called shelters).
Unfortunately many people think they need "papers"(even if they are falsified) on a dog to make it worthwhile. While a reputable breeder would never sell to these kinds of people ,these type of places make it far to easy for anyone to get a dog.
As OnyxGold said instant gratification...Ugh. Couple that with our "disposable society" and you've got more and more pets at shelters.
What a sad testament to how we are as a society that these practices are not only allowed put also patronized. |
