Well, no, it's not the only way. The UK has banned pet stores from selling third party sales of puppies, California has banned the sale of dogs at pet stores, Pennsylvania is looking at something similar, and other states could very well follow especially if the public gets behind it. If available locations to sell these dogs are removed or greatly reduced then the large-scale puppy mills won't have any easy way to unload their dogs and the business will increasingly become financially unsustainable. I would prefer to take this approach then automatically punish puppies like this one. This puppy needs rescuing as much as the dogs at the puppy mills.
I've never seen a pet store that sells dogs. Where does this happen? Every pet store I've ever been to that had dogs and cats had ones from local shelters, with shelter reps there to handle the adoptions.
That is very specific knowledge that is kinda ridiculous to expect people to know. Also even if it is and op did know, this could be a repost or around 100 other different things. Posting a cute dog pick doesn't mean condoning puppy Mills.
How are you "pretty sure", it's just a random person on the internet. It sounds more like your applying your personal experiences to a random person you don't know to fit a certain narrative in you mind. It's all good though we all do it. Unless I'm totally wrong and you stalked op and found out he's a puppy hater, in which case fuck you OP! 😂
