Giving Petland a hard time

[Kalei]

Ahaha, he ain't gonna like you:P Goes to show that some owners just don't know how to run a business that is perfectly legal or right by law.

Good for you! I have always hated Petland and their stores definately suck. Hope you can teach him a lesson.

The petland here isn't half bad.

Petland has a very bad rep here. This one is new so its still clean. But puppies that look 5 weeks old. Kittens that look 4 weeks old. 15 bunnies in a 4x4 cage. 50 budgies in a 4x4 cage, wing to wing. 10 ferrets in a 4x4 cage. These are all those square plastic "cages" that are raised up and open on top they have in the middle of the store. Groups of hamsters together in those which will probably fight amongst themselves when they are over 2 weeks old, which is about their age. Basically its a recipe for disaster.

In my book, Petland = puppy mill/kitty mill haven.

I HATE Petland with a fiery passion. Please, do whatever you can to give this guy a hard time. Shame on anybody who endorses pet store puppies and kittens. I hope you can even gather up a rally of animal lovers to shoo him away. Ugh. I hate hate hate petland.

I would do anything in the world to shut that place down, but, unfortunately, their tentacles reach 'round the world. They are just plain evil. All Petlands buy from puppy mills. They keep sick dogs, sell them, and then tell the owners that if the dog dies there's a guarentee and they will replace it. I know people who have worked there and they tell horror stories about what happens behind the scenes. They make the employees sign waivers and promises not to bad mouth the store (at least they did here). I've been asked to leave 4 times. They also drug the animals...I picked up a ferret, who fell over in my hands because he was so drugged. The manager told me they sleep 18 hours a day, so he was just tired. Whatever. I also know that if the pup doesn't sell when they're young enough, they generally just put them down. CagneyDog, check out the premises a little closer, I think you'll find out. They are an international corporation whose bottom line is the almighty dollar...not the good of the animals.
