CBC Marketplace investigates puppy mills

It was broadcast last night, but you can watch it thanks to the magic of the internet. The sad thing is that one will pay more for a pet store puppy (and not just in vet bills) than if it was bought from a breeder. The woman with the pomeranian paid $2500 for him. My MIL only wants $600 for a shih tzu puppy, and they come with a real pedigree too!
