Live in Missouri(one of the higher # of puppy mill states,i hear) I tried and tried to adopt a Yorkie, or any pup in this state! I got a chorkie coming that I purchased her(NO MILL-only litter she had, I went and saw!) I even tried to foster!
Why is it so hard to adopt? I adopted a terrier mix in the late 70's from a local shelter- Had him for 12+ years! Went back there
I filled out 2 applications- in there -emailed 2 and have never heard 1 word! Never even got to talk to anyone when I was there-they could not find my application!
I do not have a fenced yard,but live in country, and I do have other animals- Maybe that's it. And really the lady I got from is not a "breeder" and I got this little guy for a good price-probably cheaper than I could of gotten from a shelter here!
But Why?
We NEED some good rescue groups in Mid Missouri- we have the lots, that need HOMES!
iF i WAS CLOSE TO YOU, i'D BE ADOPTING/ FOSTERING OR BOTH! |
