Question: Where is best to buy a Puppy???
Where would be the best place to get a Maltese Poodle ?? There are many designer dogs for sale in the Petshops in Sydney .. but I have been warned not to buy a dog from a petshop.. as you are never sure of the orgin of the dog and sometimes I am told puppies in petshops are obtained from"Puppy Mills" ... is this the case in Australia?? and is this good advice ... where is best to get this type of dog. Any advice would be great.

Answer: Where is best to buy a Puppy
This is a very interesting question. There are a few pet shops out there that have been known to do the wrong thing. Some pet shops are very good. Puppy Farming is a very broad term, which can vary in degrees. Some puppy mills are horrific. Some aren't so cruel. Generally speaking, most reputable breeders will only breed one or two different breeds. These designer dogs are going for mega bucks so the pup may fall victim to the trend, by becoming puppy farm off spring. All in all, if you find a pup who is happy and healthy - you should be right. Despite where they come from, all they need is a loving home. Beware of pet shops who will not tell you where their pups come from or who say 'the puppies are bred just for us'. That is puppy farming.
