If pet stores can only get pets from licensed breeders and those breeders are meeting USDA requirements (does anyone ever do research to see what those actually are?) then they aren't buying from "puppy mills" (which is a coined term without definition....it can be and is applied to virtually any breeder). And it doesn't matter if you get your puppy/kitten/whatever from the local no kill shelter or the pet store...you chose the one you wanted, you paid money for it, you SHOPPED and you BOUGHT.
