All the Petcos/Petsmarts up here partner with the Humane Societies. The only animals for adoption there are pound crittersThere’s two types of people who buy from places like that.. total moronic bimbos who think animals are replaceable toys, and bleeding hearts who think they’re “rescuing” by buying from there.
You’re not rescuing anything, you’re lining a CEO’s pockets and emptying a cage for the next puppy pumped out by an overbred bitch.
Same goes for larger pet chains (petco, petsmart) and BYBs selling on the side of the road.
Please just don’t. Support a rescue, any of them. Report pet stores like that and try to get them shut down or have better animal welfare laws put into place.

It's a great system.
I've only seen one of those awful pet stores around here still doing business and it's also a feed store. It's horrible. Don't know who would support such a practice.
