I would have done the same thing. Although you ended up supporting the store, you also rescued a dog that was headed for disaster, for sure. You are forgiven by most of us (can't speak for everyone, of course) for having purchased your lovely doggie at Petland, if that makes you feel less burdened. I would like to believe that not all pet stores get their pets from mills. I just don't have any information about the numbers from pet mills vs. good breeders. I have my on ideas about this, but I just don't know.

So yes, I would have done the same thing. Thanks for rescuing this babe of yours!

So glad to hear it is working out for you!
