I got Harley from a breeder, but am definitely not objected to getting a rescue in the future. I want one. My biggest concern is I want to make sure that I have a lot of money saved before getting a rescue. I refuse to pay the adoption fee and not have every penny possible to fully save it's life. Ok yeah I can afford a "normal dog" whatever that means, but really a rescue has a chance of needing really special care.
But that's just my opinion, if you're going to save a dog's life you might as well have enough money to fix every little thing that's broken, or it's not fair. (not to say that all rescues are that ill or broken, it would just kill me to not be able to do everything possible to make him or her happy). I know there are many amazing people on here who have done just that, and I commend them.
