text: I am ecstatic that Westcor malls is getting rid of the pet stores and letting shelters use them I have adopted a dog from Pawtique recently and I love him He is a great dog and so sweet I cannot believe if this rescue had not saved him from the pound that he would be dead right now These kind of rescues are what is saving the lives of so many animals nnI also read the negative treadmill comment and that is just ignorant These poor dogs are spending so much time in kennels that time on the treadmill is not just for weight loss it is to keep their minds engaged too I have used a treadmill for one of m dogs as well And like most new things dogs need to be trained on them and sometimes are scared at first My dogs were all scared to use the dog door at first but that does not make it a mean thing to have them use And now they love itnnthe pawtique is also mostly volunteer run so I like that the money spent there goes to the care of the animals
