Stopping pet stores from selling animals is one step in the right direction to stopping pet mills. They are their #1 client.
That purebreed you are getting from the pet store is most likely trauhahahahahaed by all the shit the pet store and puppy mill owners put him through.
The second step is to stop peer to peer sales. Lots of people go to shelters or wherever they can find cheap dogs and then turn around and sell them for a premium on Craigslist.
Giving away animals or selling them cheaply is only putting them in harms way. If a family can't afford to buy an animal, they probably shouldn't own one.
Lastly, the final step to fixing the issue with puppy mills is to have all animals registered and tracked through a central authority.
All this may seem excessive, but anything else just leaves room to people using living animals for financial gain which leads to abuse.
