Whats a “breeder” and why buy from them and not a pet store?
Pet stores buy from what is known as “puppy mills”. These are places who throw two dogs together without thought of health or well being for the puppies. They have been found to be in the most incredible filth imaginable. These are places who sell to pet stores to make money and for no other reason, especially love of a bred. These puppies have been found to be sickly and because of poor breeding full of health related problems. The only way to shut down a puppy mill is to end the demand. If pet stores make no sales they would not be “reordering” those puppies. The demand diesthe supply does too. A Breeder is quite the opposite. Most breeders make little or no profit. They take into consideration the health and pedigree of both the father and mother to ensure a litter of puppies that will be of sound mind and body. Once a litter is born they take extreme measure to ensure every need of the litter it met. They are breeding to add an animal to their own family too. They want the same kin
