whos dogs are from petstores?

[finn's mom]

I've never gotten a dog from a pet store, but, my ex and I did get our Bengal cat, Lock, from a pet store. Finn came from a breeder, not a mill. I'd say they were probably just a step up from backyard breeders, though.

None of my dogs were pet store puppies...

Shadow I got from my Aunt...not sure where she got her from, most likely BYB though

Micki and Mini - BYB...I really didn't know much about backyard breeders at the time, and we suffer from it. Micki has problems up the wazoo

Kyra - Mini's puppy Couldn't convice the rents not to do it...my dad grew up thinking it was beneficial for female dogs to have one litter...they are "better dogs"

Jack - Rescue, he was on his way to the shelter but an old man took him in and handed him over to a rescue instead and then we picked him up a month later.

- Hunter came from a rescue group
- Savannah was a friend of friend who found her as a stray but couldn't keep her.
Bear and Nikka came from our ex next door neighbor, Nikka first followed by Bear.
My RB terrier X Sandy my mom got at the swap meet when I was in high school, I'm guessing he came from a backyard breeder.
