   Pet stores and breeders get enough of peoples money, especially when perfectly good family pets can be had at the humane society.  Good for them.

   Is there any way to find out which business men will be participating?

   Got my dog at a shelter also.  One of the best things you can do if you’re a pet or animal lover.
