    Keep going, educate educate educate! We picketed and got the store that was supposed to launch a new "chain" of puppy stores closed, when they had the nerve to try to open it an hour from ME! They closed and cancelled plans for the chain, although that may be them trying it again, just in a different place ...

    This chain of stores is sneaky. They got in right under our radar, literally, right down the street from my house. I posted this on FB, and was surprised that some people really don't know where pet shop pets come from. Reputable breeders do not sell their puppies to pet shops, people.

    Anything we can do to help, let us know! Any radio stations, local newspapers, local television stations - contact them all individually, as chances are there will be someone on staff who is an animal lover, and they always need compelling "human interest" stories! I would even be willing to go on any radio show if they want someone to call in, as of course am hosting a show now on AllPawsPetTalk and have that as well as this website to add oomph to my statements!

    I'm happy to say that our city passed a law about 10 yrs ago that no cats or dogs could be sold in pet stores.

    Major Kudos to you and the grocery market manager. I hope with little more effort you can bring down the store itself.

    Never say die !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Owned by my baby and heart-dog Lolli.

    If each pet we love takes a part of our heart and replaces it with a part of theirs, my heart is a very strange collection of pieces, but I wouldn't have it any other way


    Some people believe holding on and hanging in there are signs of great strength. However, there are times when it takes much more strength to know when to let go, and then do it. --Ann Landers
