Stupid Petstores and BYBs...:(

somebody on another pet board I belong to is beyond excited about getting her first Puggle in a couple days. says she understands its a mutt and knows shes paying more for this mutt than any of our purebred show qualitys ever came close to, but would rather pay for a mutt from a breeder than shelter. so she can "know who the parents are." :rolleyes:

What does it matter if you know who the parents are? Thats sad...Shes going to pay a big load of money so she can know who the parents are and leave all the poor shelter dogs to die?! :( (sorry dont mean to offend or anything, thats just sad to me...)

Tinkerbelle was, and thats why I said stupid petstores and BYBs...It's because of a BYB who didnt give a crap about the health of her puppies that Tink had something wrong with her and that she died. Lily on the otherhand was gotten from a reputable Pom breeder, who had Lily checked for everything and taken to the vet 5 times before we got her.

molli and sam are both from bybs so was my rb missy. :(

Boy, that makes no sense what so ever. :confused: :rolleyes:

UGH! PEOPLE THESE DAY! :confused:

All of this has been said 1 million times. We ALL KNOW ABOUT PET STORES.

ok!! i didn't know there was threads about this

A lady came to me for some work. I was making a joke about not "charging" for the fur.....MAXIMUS just has fur EVERYWHERE. The woman continues to tell me she just bought a golden "doodle??" She said they are not supposed to shed. I wanted to stick her with a pin. But you know, a job. Shoulda stuck her anyway. Make her bleed. Never in my sewing career, have I ever stuck a person before....ever. I shoulda though.

the sad thing is that ALOT of people are NOT AT ALL educated about dog breeds and aren't in to it so they don't know that buying a 'doodle' dog or any other designer breed is bad.

This stuff makes me soooooooooooo mad!!
There is a little pet store by my house, (a really dirty, cobwebbish store) it also reeks in there. And yep, you guessed it! They sell puppies. :mad: :mad: They sell sooo many designer dog breeds there, I don't even go in there to look at the puppies anymore, it makes me so darn upset. Luckily, they are going out of business! I'm soo happy! Hopfully another pet store goes there, and they keep it a lot cleaner, and know better then to sell puppies.
