I would not buy from petland. Puppy mill stuff aside, the will rip you off on the price. Then add in supporting puppy mills etc.....
Years ago we adopted a young black lab, and she was an amazing dog.
If I were going to get a dog like a lab, I would rescue a young one. I would go to a breeder to get a dog that you can't find in a rescue situation. We got an english bulldog, and there are not many that need to be rescued. Plus we are only able to have one dog at this point. I would definitely rescue one once we have our OWN space and can have more than 1 dog.
But if going with a purebred, definitely research breeders and pick a good one! Ours were great.
