is there such thing as a good legal breeding operation that you can purchase pure bred puppies from or are all breeders considered evil running a puppy mill?

What if the puppy store can prove they are acquiring their puppies from good breeders that follow the law, would you approve of this?

It's a matter of each person's choice whether they want to acquire a dog from a shelter or a puppy store, they have the legal right to make those choices just like you have the legal right to voice opinion

Responsible breeders do not sell to pet stores. There is no way because good breeders charge a lot of money for their dogs and they only have a few. In order for a pet store to make money, they buy them for around $100-$200 from a large broker. Then they sell them at much higher prices. These dogs are manufactured like machine parts and the mothers are living in hellish conditions.

What in the hell is wrong with Obama getting a dog from a breeder? Maybe he wants to see the parents to see if the dog is a quality dog. Im sorry I have a shelter cat but im also a breeder and I believe for some people they want a quality bred dog. Why dont you go get pissed off at the people who put the dogs in the shelter.

He should have been an example to his kids and to the nation by rescuing an animal from the shelter. If he had, we would have probably solved the whole problem by now. I deplore people who dump and I believe that commercial breeders are part of the problem. I never see them at the pound. NEVER. There are many, many purebred dogs dying every day. Why don't you rescue some? They are from breeders too. Don't get mad at me, get mad at the commercial breeders.

@Devasquez7 Purple eyes and nine outfits. Recall said video. I own it. That, Heart Of Gold & I'm No Angel. For her debut, last name was written with dollar sign.  Carole Davi$.

"People can't walk the street 'cause they never know who they're gonna meet... For that mean, mean, mean... Mean green... Almighty dollar"

Man: "That is serious money."

Reading The Diary of Jinky Dog of a Hollywood Wife halted my thought to buy. Chose instead to adopt. Next month I volunteer at the local SPCA Animal Rescue.

Amusing.  One day I'm eleven years old. Admiring a beauty whom mistook a fish tank for Jacuzzi. Whose dip resulted in a caked face. Later in life she teaches me.

What problem with ethics are you speaking about specifically?

Be specific and come out, coward.

[hollywoodjinky]

Come out from behind your anonymity, you liar. I never demanded camera time, Chris Derose demanded camera time after not protesting for one single minute over a course of 6 months. In fact, he demanded that I not be given camera time even though I was the de facto LCA spokesperson for that campaign--and what does a spokesperson do on camera? Run away from cameras?

If you've got a problem with that, come out, tell me who you are and we'll discuss it.
