We recently had a Petland open up here and it makes me so mad. Ever since they opened I've notice a lot of purebreds turing up at the shelter. Most of those were impluse buys at Petland. They never bother to learn about the breed and see the cute puppy so they buy it then weeks later they realize it wasn't what they wanted and drop it off at the shelter.

I've also noticed that now on craigslist I see lots of ads put up by people trying to get rid of their Petland dog.
