Actually many people feel that rescue's should come free or cheap...if you did a search on YT you will see how people really feel. They think they should get a discounted dog.
Many animal shelters know that over 50% of the dogs they adopt will be returned again but they feel that at least 50% got their final home. The more times an animal is returned to the pound they will have a higher change of being euthanized. A reputable rescue operates on a 80 to 95% final home placement.
