Stop Selling Pets In Pet Stores
We need to shut down one pet store at a time. I am starting with where I live here in Ontario with Corbret's Pet Store.
They Constantly have signs with a credit plan, and money off with purchase.
As purchasers, we make the choices, and we have chosen to support the milling business by continuing to purchase puppies from pet stores and retailers that are supplied by the puppy mill industry. It's supply and demand- and puppies are the products.
Over the past 2 years, the Ontario SPCA has followed hundreds of leads from the public regarding puppy mill operations. The result has been the removal of over 1,000 dogs and puppies from 90 mills across the province.
It's difficult to see the puppies in the pet store window, knowing full well you or someone you know could offer a wonderful life full of love and companionship, and care. But if we are ever going to end the cruel practice of puppy mills, we all have to start somewhere and tell everyone you know that purchasing is supporting.
Please help me stop at least One here in Windsor, Ontario, Canada Corbret's Pet Store
Lets stop this cruel industry and get the word out.
Sign the Petition and help me get this to my MP and shut down Corbrets.
Thank You so Very Much from My Family to your. and God Bless
I JUST WANT TO SAY THANKS TO ALL OF WHO HAVE SIGNED AND KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK EVERYONE, I HOPE THAT THIS WILL HELP WINDSOR, ONTARIO, CANADA EVEN IF ITS ONE STORE!

I have been in the store myself and have tried to find out how and where the puppies and cats come from, but got no answer, go figure. I am going to give a poem that I read not to long ago and it broke my heart:
A store owner was tacking a sign above his door that read "puppies for sale". Signs like that have a way of attracting small children, and sure enough, a little boy appeared under the stor owner's sign. "How much are you going to sell the puppies for?". he asked. The store owner replied, "Anywhere from $30 to $50."
The little boy reached in his pocket and pulled out some change. "I have $2.37," he said. "Can I please look at them".
The store owner smiled and whistled and out the kennel came the lady, who ran down the aisle of his store followed by 5 teeny, tiny balls of fur. One puppy was lagging considerably behind. Immediately the little boy signaled out the lagging, limping puppy and said, "What's wrong with that little dog?"
The store owner explained the the Vet had examined the little puppy and had discovered it didn't have a hip socket. It would always limp. It woauld always be lame. The little boy became excited. "That is the puppy I want to buy."
The store owner said, "No, you don't want to buy that little dog. If yopu really want him I will give him to you."
The little boy got quite upset. He looked straight into the stoer owners eyes, pointed his finger, and said , "I don't want you to give him to me. That little dog is wirth every bit as much as all the other dogs and I'll pay full price. In fact, I'll give you $2.37 now and 50 cents a month until I have him paid for."
The store owner countered, "You really don't want to buy this little dog. He is never going to be able to run and jump and play with you like the other puppies."
To this the little boy reached down and rolled up his pant leg to revel a badly twisted, crippled left leg supported by a big metal brace. He looked up at the store owner and softly repled, "Well, I don't run so well myself, and the little puppy will need someone who understands!"

Now If this doesn't make you wonder how the animals are being treated in pet store Then I don't know what will.
Adopt from your local shelter or Humane Society. They have Dogs that are looking for a second chance at a good home.
Never adopt a puppy (or any pet) on impulse.
Report all suspected puppy mills to your local Humane Society or to the Ontario SPCA at 1-888-668-7722.
Thank You so much From My family to yours, And God Bless
