I feel bad for the puppy, one more transition to experience.
I don't think this turned into a debate. I think this also opened some eyes--rescues require funding, besides vet bills, food, etc. Nothing is free.
And btw, for the "someone" who thought I was tooting my own horn for following through on good ethics, and what a responsible breeder does and should do in these circumstances, I think the YT'rs here want to know that there are breeders who do the right thing by their dogs..... |
I'm not following?? Not sure anyone knows for sure whether it was the breeder or owner of this little guy being the reason he is up for adoption. So it was disheartening to see debatable conversations about why, who, price, rescue, etc. Good ethics or not being the reason, we agree he will surely make someone with LOVE a wonderful Biewer baby.
