If everyone saw this, no one would ever buy a dog at a pet store.

If you must get a dog from a Breeder then please do your research. There are good breeders out there. It’s best to adopt from a shelter but there are special circumstances where buying a dog from a Breeder makes sense.
Go vegan
Adopt not shop
Adopt or shop RESPONSIBLY, guys!
Okay, here’s the thing. NOT ALL BREEDERS ARE THE SAME. WHY CAN’T YOU PEOPLE UNDERSTAND. Yes, petland is known for being a HORRIBLE dog breeding store, but don’t say that all breeded dogs come from bad places.
The sad thing is that people only want puppies and once they get older, they don't care about them anymore(kids especially)
Oh well one of my dogs were from a puppy mill?
Pet land is a RIp off
my puppy escaped from a puppy mill with her mom 12 years ago ❤️
There used to be a pet land near where I live, and I always thought it was strange that they had puppies. I wrongly assumed they were from shelters and just on display to help them get adopted. I'm really glad they didn't last long and were shut down.
Thank you for listing Petland as one of the top offenders, buying puppies from horror shows of breeders. The next county over, Sarasota FL outlawed the sale of dogs from these commercial breeders and Petland, who had a store in the county started raising a ruckus that they don't fall under that law. Long legal battles ensued, it looked like Petland was probably going to lose, so they relocated the store to our county, Manatee. So now they have two stores in our county. The sound you hear is me gagging. On October 31 the idea of regulating the sale of puppies is going to be brought up in front of the County Commissioners, again . Last time most got cold feet about this issue and voted the regulations down. I am planning to speak and tell how I am targeted for commercials showing mother dogs and cute puppies romping through thick fields of grass, which of course is ridiculous because the mothers would run away, but that is beside the point. If they move their store to a county who is not regulating them, and they target dog interested people with totally misleading adds, then I hope they are forced to stop selling puppies. These people have NO MORALS of any kind.
Dude that’s just mean really they are puppy’s ! They just want to live ! Not be breeding machines ! Sadly I can’t adopt dogs because of several allergies I have and because I live on a apartement if I want to get a dog I have to get em from breeders ?
I wouldn’t adopt dogs from puppy mills if someone asked me to. It’s so sad to learn the truth
this is what corrupt government leads to. those large pet store chains and such who make millions every year lobby congress to make sure that these regulations never get changed. or worse yet the end up repealing those regulation entirely and just tell us to "trust that the market will self regulate" and then the dogs suffer. Never shop always adopt is great and all…and make sure you do that. but we need to pressure our representatives (lol what a joke that name is) into passing laws that will protect these dogs and will force breeders of dogs to be humaine with their pens and standards when it comes to the breeding and care of these Momma dogs and the puppies. So go on and call your Senator and representatives and ask about how they feel about puppy mills and if they know about the inhumane conditions and treatment of the animals in there. And if able record the calls (make sure to check applicaple laws about record calls first)
That way if a polition ever says something stupid like "i dont really care, or there is more important issues than puppy mills" you can put them on blast.
I can see the sadness in that’s dogs eyes ?
There's no stopping this, like all businesses it is running because of money.
But if you don’t buy them then they are all gonna just end up dead.
Please adopt from your local shelter and put breeders out of business. There are millions of loving animals in the shelters that are in desperate need of a home. Breeders are making the situation even worse just to try to turn a buck.
This makes me cry so much I wish they didn’t have theese bad places for dogs I wish I could take them all and give them to loving homes or keep them
Dodo you a idiot ever looked at animal shelter cats and dogs are stacked on top another 19 hours a day or longer
Please don’t buy from stores, buy from breeders that will let you go to their breeding site, or atleast show you the conditions the pet is in 🙂
note: if you see a puppy or kitten for ADOPTION, its ok. for sale? FORGET ABOUT IT.
THEY'RE LYING. THE PEOPLE AT THAT PET STORE ARE LYING.
wait……………WHY ON EARTH ARE THE PUPPIES IN TANKS?!?
DOES UR HEARTS HURTS BECAUSE MY HURTS REALLY BAD IT MAKES ME PUKE WHICH I DID IN THE END BUT I'M GLAD THERE SOME FEW WHO LOVE ANIMALS VERY MUCH LIKE ME B/C ANIMALS ARE MY TRUE FRIENDS AND FAMILY.. . THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH ???????❤♥❤♥❤♥❤❤❤❤❤???
i will always adopt from a pound/no ones home or puppy mill/cause as far as im concerned if you repeatedly mate your yorkie at home more then one litter you are a small puppy mill//you can believe i would never buy from that//no way//
she is full of crap from here to hell and she knows it//
Man this is sad idk y I randomly searched for this but I’m glad I did !!!
What happends to all the puppies who dont get homes now
I dont care if y'all think I'm over reacting, but those mf should be sent to prison, in a cramped cage, and given one meal a week. Let those bastards rot in jail, just so they realize the pain those poor animals experienced.
They need to regulate this like they do in the UK
Always adopt animals
I can't believe people do this to animals
Dog adoption are too complex!?
The sad part about this is that the people who make these stupid laws own a pet if not them their families do and then they turn a blind eye to puppy mills. Hypocrisy at it’s best.
?????
Heart breaking
India use to sell dogs there's alot of places where we can buy them, I am Indian and I think we need to stop selling dogs like as they are some kind of products.
I wish more people realized that a responsible breeder would never sell their dogs to a third party ?
Can we put them breeders in the cage
There are great, perfectly beautiful, wonderful dogs at shelters and rescues so keep that in mind. If you MUST have a pure bred dog, you have to do the work and research. You have to go see the breeders and be allowed to see ALL the various kennels the dogs are being kept in, not just your particular dog. Check out the parents and grandparents. Look at the siblings. Spend some time with the pup you hope to buy. You are spending your hard earned money on a living being who will become part of your life so be careful BEFORE you commit to buy. Make sure you get a contract too that states exactly what the breeder will be responsible for should the pup you buy get sick or have some other birth defect or something. Call people who have bought dogs from that breeder too.
