The reason for choosing to rescue specific breeds, is probably just a preference. One group cannot save them all.

The reason for buying at auction then reeselling is most likely to keep the dogs out of the hands of unscrupulous breeders. I don't know of any rescue groups that sell un altered dogs. But f they can maike a small profiot on those dogs it would help to offset the costs of the other dogs.

No! rescue groups are not brokers. Brokers do not spay/neuter the dogs, and they do not take in dogs that need medical care. If they bought them in a lot, as auctions sell them, they would most likely destroy any unsound dogs.

Rescue groups do not make a profit, Some of the animals might bring in a small profit, but overall, they do not make a profit.
