My mom just told me this--I'm so upset! :mad:
My mom's cousin just bought a little puppy for their two daughters. (It was actually this girls' mother in law) At first i was so happy to hear this but then my mom was like, "Liana this is going to upset you." The puppy is a Shih tzu that came from a pet store. Not only that but this poor puppy is 1 MONTH OLD! :mad: How freaking stupid of them! The poor puppy just opened it's eyes and it's being brought to this new home. He is most probably from a puppy mill and the poor little guy never even got socialized with its mother and littermates. Not that it would have made a big difference in a puppy mill where there food and poop probably goes in the same bowl. :mad:
If he had been in the pet store and bought at a month old how old was he when he was taken away from this farm?? :mad: :mad: I honestly wouldn't care if this dog came from a shelter or not. A responsible breeder would have been so much better. Not this--the very worst place. :mad:
My mom's aunt got really upset and my mom's other cousin (the new dog owners' sister) really lectured her on puppy mills and so forth, so at least someone in the family is educated. I wouldn't be surprised if he will end up at a shelter. Poor thing. And the daughters are still young, they will treat him like a toy and ignore him in a few months. The whole situation is so sad and terrible and....UGH! :mad: I can't even go see the pup or talk to them because they live so far away.
Anyways, just a vent. Sorry about that.
