Just one more thing.....
Thats a very black & white statement....

There is a middle ground of people... they are not IDEAL, but they are far from 'just tossing a dog out to anyone' ... those people fall into a gray area that rescues need to examine more closely. Or fit with alternative dogs when the one they applied for might not be a fit to HELP free up space in the rescue for MORE dogs... there is and sadly probably always will be another one behind that one waiting for a home.

Ok... thats it ....
