    I don't trust Animal Planet any longer, and their programming has not been improving, so I am still boycotting them.

    Sounds more like HSUS or PETA at work...

    The Animal Rights network is picking on a petstore? This can not be good. No matter how you may feel about petland, at least they're in favor of keeping pets instead of 'freeing all animal slaves'

    Re: Animal Planet Investigates PETLAND

    I don't know, it could be about their dogs. I have two dogs from a petland (both accidents, and they need homes too, shelter people! you wouldn't believe the comments I get ) who are absolutely wonderful dogs, but I know for sure at least one came from a puppy mill after doing the research after we got her.

    I can tell you, though, the one closest to me really pissed me off lately. I brought a garter back with a huge mouth injury, and the next day it was back out for sale. Their reptile care is really just as bad as the other pet store's around here.

    I do like the fact that many of their smaller animals are found locally, but I don't think they should be selling dogs unless they start getting them from reliable breeders.

    So, as much as I'm disliking Animal Planet at the moment, we'll see. I'll probably watch it just to see what it talks about.

    who would buy a puppy from petland? The petland here went out of business a few months ago but there puppys were insanely priced. I was charging 200-350 for my akc registered siberian pups they were charging 700. I saw a beagle in there once for 500
