These shops depend on people just like us to buy their food, toys, grooming supplies, etc. And when you think of how many responsible pet owners are out there...boycotting them is the best way to hurt them. If we don't frequent these places...they don't make any profits. We have a local pet store which sells puppies. After trying to reason with the owner of this store many times over the humanity of what they were doing & what they were actually promoting, I've come to the realization that establishments like this just don't care. It's all about the all mighty dollar. So do as I do...keep your dollars out of their stores. I would personally go without than support any pet store that sells puppies. Amanda Amanda G.
