Obviously you should never buy a dog from a store- but is it still supporting puppy mills if you buy other products from pet stores that have puppies? The other parts of the business are OK, so is it OK only to boycott the bad part of the business?
Where do you get your pet products from?
What about how they treat fish- do you just care about the fuzzy creatures? Fish entusiasts do not like Petco or Petsmart and despise Walmart.
There are many pet stores across the country, aside from the egregious national chain to remain nameless, that sell puppies. Other than protesting the store, what are steps someone can take to help kindly persuade the store owner to change their business model to adoption-friendly? If you have any sources, please cite them.
What about other animals like kittys and birds and even rodents(hamsters, gerbils, rats) and bunnies etc etc? Are there places like puppy mills where these animals are treated cruelly and bred to death and killed when they are of no use to them anymore? Also, what can I do to help stop these puppy mills besides not buying dogs from pet stores? All ideas/suggestions are welcome.
