Aly, um... how do I say this. The dogs on the web site are sick and that site is a puppy mill. If you want a dog from there, you are weird. If you don't read this I'll tell you tomorrow at school.Originally Posted by IrishSetterGurl

That website screams out puppy mill all over it.
Shelters and rescues are wonderful places to find dogs and puppies. And the ehalth is much better.
When you buy from a mill, the puppy may or may not be healthy; but the parents are treated horribly, they are just investment assets in a business. The parents don't get vet care at all. I could give you links to info about puppy mills, but it WILL make you cry. It is horrible.
Puppy mills are legal in 7 states in the US right now. UGH!
If / when you are ready to get a dog, we here at Pet Talk can direct you to rescues and such. If you want a chihuahua, do a google search for chihuahua rescue. Or go to a rescue like www.hua.org!

I would never buy a dog online, period or from a breeder no matter how good the breeder is there are too many homeless dogs out there. I'd rather adopt. We have what people would call a "cockapoo" (cocker spaniel/poodle) at the shelter where I volunteer and he's the cutest thing! Atleast when someone adopts him, they won't be buying him they will be ADOPTING him!![]()
