Dog shopping

[strandinthewind]

You should care very much about a dog's pedigree. If you buy one from a puppy mill, it likely will cost you thousands over the years. That is because they breed with no care for disease, lineage, etc. Thus, puppy mill dogs are far more vulnerable to medical problems. So, you get what you pay for. Moreover, supporting a puppyu mill is a horrible thing in that if they have no business, they cannot force their unethical bredding habits on these poor creatures who have no choice in the matter. Puppy mill breeders should be jailed IMO.
