Are you saying you're concerned about the health of the animals in this pet shop? If so, contact your local Animal Control Office or SPCA immediately. If their pets are sick, and people are handling them then going home and handling their own pets, diseases can be transmitted everywhere.
If you've purchased a pet from this establishment and it's ill, you may also be able to take legal action against the place. Many states have "doggie lemon laws" that protect pet owners. (Sometime requiring the pet shops to pay all medical expenses, refund your money and/or allow you take another pet in exchange for the sick one.)
We always advise folks to NOT buy dogs and cats from pet stores because often the animals are from irresponsible breeders / puppy mills and are horribly over-priced.

You should never buy a dog in a pet store. They always import them from puppy mills in the midwest or from Pennsylvania. If you've ever seen a puppy mill, you would have thought twice before buying.
