Seems to me odd that there could have been one more rescued pup, and one less reason for the millers to be in business. I know many people have no problems rescuing puppies, and I know many breeders out there who also won't sell a pup to a home with children, but I am a stay at home mom, and all my kids are in school, and I would never let my kids harm my dogs.
If I were going to buy another one, instead of going to the rescue, or the 'reputable breeders' around here, I would be forced again to buy from a potential puppy mill or 'back yard breeder' Are there any other options? |
Kim, I am from the MD area. As a matter of fact, not far from Balto. If you are looking for another puppy to buy, you can PM me and I can refer you to someone. I have placed my last 2 puppies in their forever homes today, but I do have friends who breed and do sell to families with children. So, please don't think that your only option is a miller, BYB, or pet shop..
