Pet Stores: The Honest Chihuahua Breeder's Nightmare
|
When you buy a Chihuahua from a pet store you are putting money into the pocket of a Chihuahua breeder who cares more about the money they can make from breeding several hundred dogs each year, than they do about the quality of life they are giving those animals. By refusing to buy a puppy from a pet store, and only purchasing your new dog from a respected Chihuahua breeder, you will be doing your part to help put these mills out of business. The conditions in which the pups are bred in these puppy mills are nothing short of animal cruelty. Sometimes hundreds of females and pups are all living together in cramped conditions, often having to go without food or water for days. These conditions are rarely sanitary, and it is not unusual to find several dead pups and adult females each day. Even worse than the conditions the dogs are forced to live in, are the conditions under which the females are bred. Female Chihuahuas, being so small to begin with, often show signs of deteriorating health after each time they give birth to a new litter of pups. The dishonest Chihuahua breeder will attempt to breed each female in their kennel every time she comes into season, often without making sure she gets any medical attention to be sure that she can safely deliver another litter. This leads to the vast majority of pups being born sick and dying. You can do your part in the battle against the dishonest Chihuahua breeder by simply refusing to purchase any pup from a pet store. The conditions in which pet store animals are forced to live aren't much better than those in the puppy mills. This has led to many new dog owners discovering that their new puppy needs extensive medical attention, or worse needs to be put down immediately. All too often, the pups bought in pet stores die within just a few months of going home with their new owners. The most important thing to remember is that an honest Chihuahua breeder will never sell a single puppy to any pet store. Respectable breeders will make certain that their pups receive the medical attention they need to ensure they are healthy, and will never breed a female before she has completely healed from her last litter. Join the fight against puppy mills by talking to your vet, and asking for a recommendation for a respectable Chihuahua breeder today!
