Looks like the one out here {Toledo} is gone, too. There is one place I know of, Dave's Tropical Fish, who continues to sell puppy mill pups. My mom use to take my brother and I as kids before the evils of pet stores had occurred to any of us. On one of our trips, my brother, the turtle-buff, saw they had a Blandings turtle, which is an endangered species. Reported it. Then shortly later, needing a cardboard box, we went to grab one from their stack by the curb put out for trash, and a snake lunged at us. Thinking it had been a mistake to have thrown out a snake, my mom told the owner. When we drove by again, the boxes were stacked orderly, likely to hide the fact that they threw away a living animal. That was about 20 years ago, but one of these days we'll hopefully put them out of business.
