I got Couver as a re-home at 5 months old. He was unneutered, didn't have any vaccinations, was eating Pedigree, but had his limited AKC papers and was $300. I called his breeder to ask about what vaccinations her puppies were given and she had no interest in helping me. I never saw where he came from, but I know I got lucky with him. He has been healthy and has been a great pet.
I got Khloe from a YT member on here. Her two pups had an accidental litter (momma was spayed right afterwards). She does not have her papers and she was free. I am still in contact with her first mom and we visit with her siblings a couple times a year. She is a great woman and made sure that Khloe was going to the very best home possible. I know she would take her back in a heartbeat if we were to ever have to give her up.
I found my mom's yorkie at a kill shelter in our hometown. She was found as a stray and was picked up by Animal Control. She was never claimed, so my mom adopted her for $75 which included her spay, microchip, shots and a month of pet insurance.
I plan on supporting a reputable breeder next time if I don't rescue. |
