Thank you so much for the info but I have never ever had good luck adopting a dog through Petfinder. While I believe in adoption wholeheartedly I have been turned down so many times and have been hurt by the process. I won't go into each detail but I will give you examples let's see my home was too clean, I don't believe in overloading the dog's liver I just don't believe in heartworm medication I have had many and have never ever experienced the problem especially in the northeast. I also don't believe in flea treatment UNLESS I see flea's on my dog. I don't believe in overloading their liver's with needless meds just because that is what a vet recommends. I have had many dog's in the past and not one ever had flea's or heartworms. And as for my house being too clean I feel that was an excuse. I think rescue's are wonderful but prefer adopting from a private person so they can get to know the type of person I am vs what is on an application. This is just my opinion I will say this I am all for adopt and not shopping which is why I put this ad on the Yorkie board I just cannot go through the heartache of trying to adopt again it is just too painful. |
