I do that ALL the time. EVERYTIME I hear anyone saying anything baout even possibly getting a puppy I butt right in & start talking to them. lol
I've even gotten kicked out of a few pet stores because I was telling the customers that were interested in purchasing a puppy all of the horror stories about BYB's & PM's. I'd also state the facts that they can get a dog from a reputable breeder for about the same price.... sometimes cheaper.

It doesn't stop me though I still visit those stores (mainly to check on the conditions of the animals & to warn customers) and I still run my mouth.
