These poor puppies are then shipped to a pet shop to be sold, and without knowing that puppies past, someone has fallen love and has bought him.

Feeding and watering days were at a maximum of 3 times a week and a minimum of 2. This tends to make the dogs really dehydrated and skinny. From this, the dogs can get major health problems such as Epilepsy, Kidney and heart disease, Joint disorders, Blood disorders, Deafness and even Blindness.
