all I have to say is at least theyre not dying in puppy mills..it looks extremely clean..and they're given a chance in life..so think greater..stupid martains!
When they grow up or cause problems they are thrown away, like used things.
It's not resposibilty. The rules abut buying/selling pets should me much more restricted in Japan. When i think about dogs breeded in Germany, that are treated like living creatures, not like cute home accesory, Japan's situation really cries for vengeance.
That's true that the dogs are clean, feeded & so on. But:
1) They are taken awaye from mothers way to early - they don't get time to socialize, that's why they are very difficult to train
2) They have nobody to play with, no space, they are untouched - that's not how a heathy dog should be raised
3) You can buy them like candies, without any proof that you are able to care for them. That's way very often teenage girl but them, jys because they are kawaii/cute -
(see post below) We can not comment on where the dogs came from, but we saw lots of delighted puppies being taken off by new delighted owners. It did not feel cruel, seedy or poorly managed. In fact it felt like the opposite. It is good to have provoked a discussion. If you have the chance to visit Japan, especially if you are from the West, you have to open your mind to a very different way of life and not rush too quickly to conclusions and judgements.
It has been interesting to see the comments posted over the last few years on our video. It is a shame that there are some worrying racial comments that have emerged. From what we saw, the dogs were very well looked after. There were many assistants who were diligently cleaning, feeding and caring for the dogs when we visited (3 or 4 times in the space of a week).
This should be highly illegal. Not only are all those dogs from puppy mills, but they're in small tanks now, and most importantly, they encourage impulse buying/window shopping. People see it, like the look of it - and buy it there and then. Any animal should be researched before buying. The pet shop know this, but rely on the 'cute puppies' to make a sale.. what happens when they're adults and they don't get sold? Thrown onto the street or eaten probably..
if you've never worked in a pet shop don't judge! how the hell do you know where the pups come from?? only some pet stores use puppy mills not all of them. most pet stores look after their animals very well. cages get cleaned daily with vet grade disinfectant and animals are fed on high quality food. most pet stores looks after animals way better than some owners who go to work and leave their dog at home for 8 hours a day or leave their dog outside in heat and cold
@cheeekay 99.95 of puppies in pet store come from puppy mills and the others come from bad breeds because who would sell their puppies to a pet store. also who would buy a puppy they know nothing about....???
@cheeekay The majority of pet stores that sell puppies do. That's the only way they can keep their inventory always full. The only way to make a profit.
I've worked in a pet store for almost 5 years, so I am allowed to judge.
I've seen pups being treated worse actually. This is not as bad. The cages appear clean and the pups appear healthy. Do keep in mind that this is only a temporary situation for the animals and they will get taken to new loving homes.
It pisses me off to see people say that its "cruel" or "evil" do put them in cages because they are being treated just fine! They DO take them out and socialize them. Its not like they are being stuffed in a cardboard box and the people aren't feeding them! (they could use more room though)
@cclayrox You must be joking. Once put in here, the animals aren't taken out until they are being sold. Its' not worth a shop owners time to take out and social each puppy every day, and they won't let customers do it because if they get bitten they could get in trouble.
@charzarg thats totally not true!! i have been to soo many dog stores like these and they take them out and let people hold them, put them in pens with other dogs so they can run around. but f you want to believe that that is awful then be my guest. i personally think its a heck of a lot better than being in a puppy mill but thats just me
@cclayrox Even so, puppy mills is exactly where they come from. No responsible, reputable or proud breeder would sell there puppies to petshops, any breeder who takes pride in what they do make sure they're giving their animals to the very best homes. And even so, wouldn't you rather get your dog from a breeder, so you can see the parent(s) and litter mates? The chances are that the dogs are taken from their mothers/litters at a much earlier age so they're at the correct age for going into shops
Omg I feel so sad for the dogs.... They are like: adopt me...please...

I love puppies but go and get a dog from your rescue centers out there, it will help one dog who faces the gas chamber.
