There are certain posts I can't bare to read on social media...
So many people out there just 'want a cute puppy' without doing their research, not realizing how much it'll cost, and not knowing it's a lifetime commitment. The more ignorant people there are wanting puppies and ignorant people selling puppies, the more abandoned dogs there are on the streets.

And then, I recently discovered how many Instagram accounts there are of backyard breeders selling teacup puppies that look very distorted due to being bred into micro teacup sizes. And then...to read the people's comments on how cute they are and that they all want one. It's sad...Can't read it.
