I have to agree with you. Well said!!!

I admire and respect people who rescue. I think it takes a very special type of person. But I know myself, I would not be the best person to provide a home to a rescued dog. I have had 1 dog in my life when I was younger and that was a cocker spaniel. And although I loved him and played with him every day, I am not the one who took him to the vet, who worked on training with him, etc. I am still so new to the world of dogs really. I have loved them ever since I was a child, but I am still learning. And I don't think I would cope well with having a dog with issues. I just think I would feel lost and not know what to do and in the end would feel like I wasn't the best Mom to that dog. I think a rescue dog needs a family that is more experienced and can devote 100% to the dog. I think maybe in the future as I learn more and experience more, I might could be that person. But right now, I don't think I could handle all the challenges that would come with the rescue as well as someone who is more experienced might.
