It SHOULD be illegal and a lot of states prohibit it. It’s really poor breeding practice and unethical. But they are of course super cute so people get sucked in. Loads have health problems.

Yeah it’s bad. There is a moral stance of rescuing dogs here unless you’re getting a designer breed (which some people look down on).
