The Sad Truth Behind That Pet Store Puppy

That cute pup you fawned over in Petland the other day may have a startling past. More often than not, pet store dogs were raised in puppy mills- cruel, cramped areas where animals are bred purely for money. The conditions are unclean, dirty, and extremely unsanitary. And think about it: how many times have you seen a pet store dog walked outside? They are taught to urinate in their cages- something that contradicts house training completely. They drink out of WATER BOTTLES!!!!! LIKE HAMSTERS!!!!!!! For more information about puppy mills, visit aspca.org . Spread the word! Share your story! Warn other potential dog owners of puppy mill animals, and contact your senator, governor, or even Pres. Obama himself about this pressing issue- and help make puppy mills illegal. We must act in order to save man's best friend from unnesesary cruelty. Adopt pets from shelters, rescue groups! If you want a specific breed, visit a breed rescue organization! And most importantly, spread the word and don't let our faithful companions shiver in the wrath of cruelty.
