I went to buy a Kong for my dog as they are cheaper there. While choosing, I heard whining and yelping and went to investigate. A sterile room was filled with small wire cages containing nothing but a small towel and a water bowl, with barred wire floors - oh, and numerous puppies and kittens, of course. No toys. There was a largish lab puppy alone in one cage. In another were huddled eight tiny Maltese/poodle crosses, six weeks old (they looked younger) at $440 each. In another was a little Staffy, very lively and friendly, but pressed against him (for warmth I would say) was a tiny creature labelled Maltese/Shih Tzu, with matted hair, shivering and looking very poorly. And so on. I was on the verge of tears, it was so heartbreaking.
I would have said something to one of the assistants, but they both looked about 16 years old.
