So, rescuing a puppy is only "ok" when it's done through a rescue organization? Because as I see it, this pup was RESCUED.

I honestly don't know why some people feel the need to be so rude around here lately. It's my way or the highway, right? Do as I say, not as I do?! It's ok for me not to listen, but the second someone else does something they know isn't exactly "right" (and who defines whether or not this situation was right or wrong anyways? Were you there???) we think it's ok to bang down her door with chainsaws in hand. Give me a break! I would have done the same darn thing without even thinking about it. This boy needed an angel, and he got one. Can't we rejoice that this dog will have a loving home with a family who is ready and willing to deal with any issues that may pop up? Yes, it's bad to put $$ in the hands of the evil - but would it have been ok to allow those kids (or lord knows who else) buy that pup and breed it to death? Could you have walked away? Would you have? Some of us know we would not have - some people would like to think they would have, but in the end, I bet many of you would not. I hope that if you're ever caught in a situation such as this that you get a better reaction when you post saying "oops.. I couldn't leave him behind".

This was not a case of the OP going in to the pet store and getting sucked in. She knew what was going to happen to that boy and couldn't let it happen. She rescued him plain and simple. If you can't see that, then I feel for you.
