That leaves one less home for a dog that could be saved.

So how much did the pup cost anyway? More than $300 I would say is a small fortune or a mutt.
Well said!
No I'm don't think I'm better then anyone but I got Ivy very close to home from a rescue. Reggie I drove from NY to a Ohio shelter. So like you said you just need to look. If you want to go to a breeder that is fine just make sure it's for the "best of the breed" not a mutt. I just wish you could visit a shelter on kill day can't even begin to tell you how hard it is to see that. All dogs need love I just wish people would buying from breeders that sell mutts.
