New Baby!!!!

[buttercup132]

Please people- If you know she isnt getting a puppy from these places, then answer for me- or better yet- do not- WHAT does this have to do with Junes new puppy????? Somebody start a new thread on this subject of whatever- and keep junes puppy OUT OF it..

Because she said she dosne't see a problem with getting a pup from a pet store or puppymill and considers it saving a life. It doesn't have to do with her puppy she is getting but it still isn't right to think that way. What would be the point on making a whole new thread when the topic is still relavent to the OS. I know in my replies above I didn't incorperate her new puppy into them.

Junes...to end my posting on this thread on a positive note...

My bubba was not from a reputable breeder and he is a love...no health problems so far (not with my shelter dog that I have had for years either) but he is a sweet lovely dog.

I wish you happiness with the new addition to your family, please remember everyone is just trying to convince you, I don't think anyone is trying to attack you.

Yes we do need pictures

I agree with Alicia, 100%!

Getting a dog from a BYB/puppymill or the like isn't really saving it's life. In turn, you give them business so they 'pump' out more puppies to get more sales thus more money. If you didn't buy from them, their mothers would probably be put out of her misery or go to a shelter where she will get bathed, UTD on shots, spayed etc. The same thing will most likely happen to the puppies.

As others have said, the 'breeder' you are getting your pug from isn't that great. Sure she's just breeding pugs for pets, but even pets need testing done. Who knows, he may develop some sort of health problems later on, regardless if you take good care of him or not. I'm sure you will take excellent care of him though!

Also, not all dogs at shelters are dying, old or unhealthy. You can find many happy, healthy dogs there! Pugs included! There are many pugs available for adoption on Petfinder. You just have to look!

Well, congrats on your new addition!

ps- I am not trying to bash/attack you. I'm just trying to convince you to adopt a dog instead of buying one from a BYB.

WHY DOES ANYONE CARE WHERE SHE IS GETTING HER PUPPY FROM? ARE ANY OF YOU PUTTING UP THE MONEY FOR IT????????? NO!!!! SO BACK OFF OF HER AND JUST BE HAPPY FOR HER!!!!! IS THAT SOO HARD?

Sheesh, calm down. We are just telling her that next time she should get one from a rescue or a reputable breeder instead of a BYB. We aren't attacking her in any way.
