Now that you are finished gazing over all of the puppy pictures on the Internet and you are through with reading all about each and every breed known to man kind that you can think of, you have finally decided to bring a Pug puppy into your home and into your heart. All you have to do now is to find a place where you can purchase your Pug from and if you are like some people, you may feel that keeping yourself away from a Pug breeder is best when trying to find a healthy and well-behaved Pug.

The people who do not like getting pups from Pug breeders each have their own reasons so they opt to go and get a puppy from a pet store. But what they are failing to realize is, that all puppies sold in a pet shop have come from a breeder. Therefore, the pug you are looking at in the pet shop came from a Pug breeder. The difference is, you are not able to approach the situation in an educated manner because everything that you hate about breeders is still there.

Most people decide that they want to steer clear from a Pug breeder because of all of the drama they hear about at least once a week on the news. Most people have heard the terrible stories about the puppy mills and what happens within those places. So they simply want to make sure that their puppy does not come from a place like that because of the long term problems that can come with it and there is nothing wrong with that line of thought.

Pet stores receive all of their dogs from breeders and they generally do not take much time in deciding which breeder is best as the bottom line for them is generally which breeder can sell them the most at the cheapest amount so they can then make the most form you. None of the store employees, including management, will have the information you would need about the breeder and even if they did, there are bound to be privacy issues that would be enforced.

Now that you truly understand that even going to a pet shop is not keeping you safely away from puppy mills, maybe you can now see that you will have a better chance at getting the healthiest puppy from a Pug breeder that you can meet in person.

You are also going to be able to view how the puppy acts around the people who have been raising it. Within the walls of a pet store, you are not able to see any of the history behind the Pug you are looking at.

Any animal that comes from a home that was full of neglect and abuse is bound to end up with issues. This can come out later in their life as bad temperament, destruction of property, and violence like biting you or other animals.

These can be extremely serious issues and that is why you should not trust a pet store to review a breeder for neglect and abuse. It is completely up to you to make sure that your pet is healthy and will be a great addition to your home.
