I have never seen a petstore that sold dogs.
We, sadly, have quite a few. One of them is in the mall that we must go to in order to frequent my beloved Target. I can barely walk by it. I try to refuse to support it by going in, but if we even walk past the windows where the puppies are, I burst into tears. And it is one of the ones where they let people take the puppies out on walks, which in a way is good, I guess - but then I am torn between my love for their fresh puppy goodness and the sadness and bitterness over the puppy mills from which they come. Cause I don't care what they say in the store - NO reputable breeder sells to a pet store.
I swear I get so upset and so sad about these things - more than I think I should. Maybe I need a therapist! Â
 When I finally go crazy I am going to end up in rags, standing outside a pet store screaming into a megaphone about the evils of puppy mills, and how hard the puppies will be to house-break, and shoving propaganda into people's hands.
And, of course, the worst part of it is that, despite knowing everything that is wrong about wanting to "rescue" one of those puppies from a bad situation, I still get jonesing for a puppy, and think about the one puppy I could save, because it isn't the puppy's fault, and am soooo tempted....
I am being flippant about this, but I seriously do think this all upsets me more than it should...Â
