I want answer the question regarding pet stores . To say not all pet store pups/cats are bad. You have to do your research and ask questions of the store owner etc.
My nephew got a wonderful female sheba ino pomerianian (hope I spelled that right).
Ellie was in excellant health and was very well taken care of at the pet store where he got her. She has been the joy of his life for over a year now and spoiled rotten by his human grandparents If I lived closer, as his human auntie, I'd be added to the spoiling list LOL
