Two interesting links out of Philly cropped up on the Pack News Wire, concerning puppy mills.

A writer for PhillyBurbs.com went into a local pet store while researching information about sale of puppies. When she asked for information about breeders who supply to the store and identified herself journalist, she was escorted out.

And Philly.com reports legislation is being introduced in the Pennsylvania legislature that would require stores to post information about the puppies background, breeder and health records.

It’s a decent step in the right direction. But the better option would be to completely ban the sale of dogs and cats in stores.
