Why is it legal for pet stores to buy dogs from breeders isnt this the?

Question

same thing as being a puppy broker?Isnt being a puppy broker illegal?

Answer 1

Because, the laws have not caught up with industry.

However, it is against the rules of EVERY parent breed club, that I know of, for a breeder to sell to a pet store. But, parent clubs aren't exactly a gov't organization that can fine people or arrest people.

Answer 2

I think that it kinda depends if the laws are enforced or not.

I have always thought, been told, and seen for myself that puppy mill and back yard breeder use pet stores to sell their Mutts. You will never find a dog with a Pedigree being sold in a Pet Store around here.NO, No, no, no.

Any dog that does not carry a Pedigree is a mixed pool of genes. Or mutts, mongrels and only pet quality.

It's a law but if people don;t know this, they are victims of misrepresentation but what can we do about it?.

Answer 3

It isn't illegal for pet stores to purchase puppies from what I call breeders of no conscience. i.e. puppy mills! They are considered property.
If you really look at a mall pet store or even in a pet shop as to where the pups come from you will See alot are from mid weatern states. Prime puppy mill states.

Puppies are cute as a button but be warned, a pup from a mall pet store or a pet shop may be your biggest regret.

Answer 4

a dog broker is simply some one who buys the pupies from a breader for sale at a rathersteep price. when buying a pup from a broker ask where the pup comes from and go vist the breederif you can to see how clean the pups were raised.

Answer 5

No but keeping dogs in poor conditions and inhumaine conditions is and this is why we should not buy dogs or cats form pet store as this keeps them in business

Answer 6

No, in the eyes of the law in most states, dogs and other animals are treated as property.
