Pet Stores Banned

Richmond is set to become the first Canadian city to ban the sale of dogs in pets store. That's a pretty interesting and bold decision. This is to target puppy mills who bred a bunch of puppies in an inhumane conditions and sell them to pet stores for profits. Those puppies usually have genetic problems because of the inbreeding which is breeding within its family members. I don't think it's enough to stop the puppy mills because they can still sell them online. In owners' perspective, that means more expensive puppies because they have to seek more certified breeds and not cheaper options. In dogs' perspective, it's better condition for their future and growing up.
