Yes I agree with this, patience is one of the hardest things to learn. I even have to tell myself this when I think about the puppy mill situation; it just gets so frustrating, but we have to be careful in this area too, and make sure all laws we make are good ones. In the meantime, the average person can do something and that's to not support bad breeders.
