There is a whole host of reasons why a pet store is a bad place to get a pet and it is an especially bad place to get a Rottweiler. You should always get your Rottweiler from a reputable Rottweiler breeder and someone that not only takes the time to breed and care for your dog before you get it but also teaches your dog the basics of surviving in a home environment before you even take it to your home. There are a lot of really good reasons to avoid pet stores and the list gets longer every day.

A pet store is great for getting all kinds of supplies you may need for your pet but they should never sell living animals at a pet store and there are a lot of reasons why.

The different humane societies in the United States refer to places called puppy mills as the sources of puppies for pet stores. In a puppy mill there is no regard for good breeding and in some cases there is no regard for sanitary conditions. Dogs are bred constantly and thrown into a cage and then sold to you. The results can often be very sad and tragic.

A reputable Rottweiler breeder is going to be able to answer your questions and help you get your new Rottweiler puppy off to a good start. The breeder has probably already started the puppy on its way to getting used to being in a home so that all of the excitement and noise of a new home won't overwhelm a dog from a Rottweiler breeder and your dog has a great chance at being a fun family pet.

A pet store clerk has no idea how to raise a Rottweiler and can offer you absolutely no advice at all on how to care for your new puppy and what you should do if anything happens. A pet store puppy has spent their life looking at people through a cage and will have a hard time adjusting to life in your home. All of the noise and excitement can make important tasks like housebreaking almost impossible.

A reputable Rottweiler breeder will monitor the health of the dogs they breed and they try to make sure that the puppies they sell are without disease and have no health problems. Unfortunately not all health problems can be seen when they are puppies but a breeder will work with you if health problems arise later in the puppy's life.

To a pet store a puppy is a product supplied by a puppy mill. They have no idea if the puppy is healthy and, honestly, once you pay your money they do not care either. Your chances of getting an unhealthy puppy from a pet store are very high.

If pet stores would just settle on selling pet supplies and left the selling of live animals to qualified people who care then everything would be find. But they do not do this and they insist upon keeping puppy mills open by selling their product. Do yourself and the future of puppies everywhere a favor and see a Rottweiler breeder for your next puppy.
