This is why I asked... because some rescue (legimate, 501) have designer breeds puppies, or young adults. I was told by the owner that she pays for transport only and take unsold dogs from miller. That's all I know.

....... breeders should be every bit as hard as the rescue, not visa versa.

It's true. Although rescues try to do their best, this is reason why people turn to the breeders .
There's nothing wrong with a rescue taking a mixed breed, they are rescuing dogs; they are not supporting breeders. If the rescue is only paying for transportation of the dogs, they aren't really buying the dogs, and I see nothing wrong with this. There are some breeders who just shoot or starve to death unsold dogs.
