    Grrr!

    Well I was asked to leave the pet store today. I was in buying fish food and at the counter a lady was asking where they got their puppies from and the girl who works there said they weren't allowed to say. I must have been feeling feisty because I piped right in that they all come from puppy mills and the girl said no they come from a breeder. I said no respectable breeder would ever place their pups in a pet store. The girl was like these are the best puppies there is and I actually laughed. I said these pups have probably been in a cage until they got here, have never seen a vet and were probably taken too early from their moms. The girl called her manager up and she told him what was happening and he asked me to leave, as I was walking out I told the lady that if she wanted a dog  to go to the shelter to get one. Well I have to find somewhere else to but fish food, but boy do I feel good!

    [sm=clapping%20hands%20smiley.gif][sm=clapping%20hands%20smiley.gif] Tiffy!  Way to go! You might have to go someplace else for fish food, but if you convinced just one person not to buy a dog from a pet store, it was worth it!

    Lots of drugstores (Longs, Walgreens, Rite Aid etc.) have small pet sections where you can get stuff like fish food.

    I've gotten kicked out of 3 pet stores in my lifetime. And none of them are here today. All of them went out of business... [:D]

    The other day I stopped at a pet store near my house to get some cat food as I needed one more can for Sat. when I go to Pet-smart and get a case or two.  The store charged me .45 cents for one can of cat food. I said that's an awful lot for a can of cat food, he said what have you been paying, I said .31 cents a can at Wal-Mart. lol he ended that conversation right there.  Next day I went to Pet-Smart and bought 2 cases for .25 cents a can.  I tell it like it is!

    Glad you spoke up at the pet store. You can always buy your fish food and stuff online if there isn't anything close by. I buy most of my pet supplies online [:D]

    Good for you Tiffy! People need to realize how many poor little puppies there are without homes before they go to a pet store....

    Good for you!  We should take your example.  Some days I just don't have the "fight" in me, ya know?

    I'm normally not quite that uppity, but I had just read something about puppy mills on here and I was all fired up.
