What a seriously cute little guy! Before we were started looking for a bulldog puppy, I had no idea that stores like PetLand bought from puppy mills. We actually went in there once, and I was freaked out by how sleepy all the puppies were and that they kept puppies with obviously conflicting personalities in the same cages (which were way too small for more than one dog). Two were actually fighting, definitely not playing, as one was basically curled up in the corner trying to hide, and they paid them no attention.

get a sign and quietly protest if I felt that strongly. Remember by not buying a puppy from a pet store you are discouraging them from selling puppies in a small way. Maybe gather friends and protest. Somethings like the anti pet shop doggie sales take time, and require local action. This is Brother before I got him, a pic from the breeder. Not a pet store

I agree stores such as this should be put out of business. I don't think if the person purchased a dog on credit they would go after the dog if that person failed to pay. I would bet that they would demand some other sort of collateral such as a car, house etc. to be used as security. Full grown dogs regardless of breed aren't worth as much as a puppy, especially considering where these particular dogs are coming from. Chances are they will be riddled with health issues as they get older, I'm sure the store in question is well aware of that.
