While I understand this, it can be frustrating because I know my family could give a rescue dog a good home and with all the dogs that need homes it seems almost silly to buy a pup. But, in the end, that was the only choice I had. We love our puppy so much and my daughter is great with him. |
Ya look what happend with the dog that Ellen adopted and then gave to a family with kids. RIDICULOUS.
