My city has finally banned the sale of puppies in pet stores. I'm so relieved to hear this, because every time I walk into a pet store, It breaks my heart to see the way they treat those animals. They keep the dogs in tiny cages( smaller even then the cage I have for my rats.. for big dogs. with leaky water bottles and feces everywhere, often with more then one dog per cage. It is heart breaking. Hopefully the dogs they have 'in stock' when the ban is put into place will get put into good homes or good rescues and will live good lives , while not being replaced by more. I just wish they will extend the ban to ALL animals. I was in the pet shop the other day ( looking at toys, though I ended up buying from zellers after seeing the animals..) and I wen tot look at the rats and rodents. They had 2 rats that looks sickly in a tiny aquarium and they had about 40 or 50 little mice in an aquarium the same size :sad3: Breaks my heart.
