We can hope that the Petsmart locations where the abuse took place were not
doing so under Petsmart's orders & the Corp. was unaware of anything going
on at the individual stores & they will use the info to track down &
eliminate any others who are carrying on similar horrid practices.

I went to the one in Daytona Beach a few times when I lived in FL & I was
very impressed with the cleanliness of the store, & the fact that they
didn't sell dogs & cats & tropical fish (because of the danger to coral
reefs or something) & instead had a local humane society with dogs & cats to
adopt (most of the time with very few animals left!). My wish is that the
humane society/adoption cooperation would spread to more pet stores & help
with all those unwanted animals.

just my .02 worth
