Nope these guys were acting on their own. They were "rescueing" people's unwanted pets and using them as feeders. The store did not sell dogs and cats. Don't know where you're from or if you're just a troll, but it's not acceptable in the US. I know most in Germany have your attitude. If you read the old book, Non-Venomous Snakes (can't remember the author's name, I think it's a TFH book) the author is from Germany and he comments on the feeding habits of each species and he mentions that his African Rock Pythons would even eat dogs. But then Germany also looks the other way on smuggling too. They even give out import/export permits for the animals with no questions. That's how we have alot of the captive bred from Europe Australian reptiles.
