Pet abuse sickening
Thank you for your wonderful but depressing stories on pet shop problems ("Pet shop horror," Dec. 13 and "Store vets fail pups," Dec. 14). Maybe by exposing these pet shops, they will clean up their act or go out of business.
The bigger problem is that they are supplied by puppy mills in the Midwest. Our dog came through that pipeline and has had numerous problems and a few expensive surgeries. His sister at the pet store looked sickly. I often wonder what happened to her, especially if she ended up with a family not able to pay for expensive medical care.
Let us know what changes resulted from this story.
