I agree 100% plus half the time when you get them they are sick. I am known more pet store dogs that have had parvo. My brother got my dog from a pet store and a year later she had a parasite which they said could have been living in her for awhile up to a year before she got sick.Glad to see there are so many people on here who are actively aware of animal rights and the processes to adopt a new one. One thing we absolutely MUST do is shut down pet stores that sell dogs. These pet stores get their puppies from puppy mills where the mothers are overbred to produce puppies and kept in deplorable conditions.
