Thank You, Ileana.
Many people do not know that Petco and Petsmart do not, and have NEVER sold 
puppies.  I work at Petsmart, and I go around telling people to never go to 
a pet store for a dog.  I give out our local kennel club's breeder referral 
number at work.  It's so sad to see people with their "brand new puppies!" 
that come into our store for their supplies.  I just gave a 10 week old 
Shiba Inu puppy his first bath, and I could not get the terrible smell off 
of his little belly.  He was purchased that day from a local PET STORE, and 
he was "just $200 because he has a cataract!"  The poor baby was probably 
never out of his smelly cage.  His body was actually stained with odor. 
Makes me ill.
