 I need to say something
I need to say something....A lot of the emails are talking about having my mom go look into a shelter and rescue a dog. She has looked into 3 shelters and most were big mixes--she has bad hips and can't have a dog pulling her around. The smaller mixes she found had problems or warnings like "no children" or "one dog family". She was concern because she has 11 small grandchildren and I bring my dogs to her house. She is lonely and not use to being in a dogless home. My brother saw this site--not me. I was just wondering what you thought. She thought the puggle was cute, that's all. I don't think she really has one breed in mind...just something under 40 lbs. I know she wants a puppy. All the puppies in the shelters were lab, shepard, or rott mixes---they will all get too big for her.
I am all for saving rescues (I have a maltese mix from a rescue) but I feel like I am being preach at for her to save a dog. Most of us on this forum have pure breed yorkies---why didn't we get a rescue instead?
Sorry--maybe I am reading the posts wrong but I felt like I had to clear this up. |
