Yes but there are some people who are willing to take on the challenges of that "special needs child"
I personally couldn't do it because of work, school, etc. Miley is already an active handful and I worry myself sick making sure that she is okay all of the time. I remember when I first got her I cried for the first few days because I felt HORRIBLE for taking her away from what she knew. She seemed very sad and I know she just had to adjust to me and her new surroundings but it was just so heartbreaking because she was SO happy and content at the breeders. She's gotten much better now (although we have issues with potty training
) but she's definitely a heart stealer and I wouldn't trade her for the world!
