The wife and I decided to check out this little pet shop for the first time.. I was interested in seeing what kind of food they carried...
So we go in and head to the kibble section. On the way we pass a display full of puppies for sale. Pugs ($850), Cockers($1250), Bichons($1000).. I started thinking ok, I'm just going to ignor this and head to the food.. There was a young girl (20ish) standing their holding a pug puppy, and the store owner came and asked her if she was done. She told her yes, but that she had a few questions about them.
- Are the parents registered? And have they had health screenings done?
- Where are the puppy's from?
- Hold old are they?
- Can I have the contact info of the breeder?
- Is the breeder local?
Ok, so now I was interested in hearing what the lady had to say.. Here were her answers..(with an attitude like it was killing her to answer)
- I have no idea about the parents
- They are local. That's all I know..
- 5 weeks
- Nope.. I'm not really sure who the breeder is, but I think the breeder of the pugs is a little old lady that lives in town. Very reputable. And our breeders prefer we not give out their information. (of course they do)
The dogs were adorable of course, but we were too pissed off to notice.. I didn't bother buying food and just left. The sad thing is that these are usually the only places that sell premium kibbles.
