Well until you have walked in a rescue's shoes and paid all the vet bills to make an animal well or put an animal down because it's irresponsible owners didn't/wouldn't take care of them...then try to fine quality people so the poor animal isn't dumped again...then once one is adopted, 2 more come in and it goes on and on.
If it was so easy why are so many Yorkies on petfinder.com and did you know that:
• Only
38% of all dogs and cats will remain in their first home for their entire lives.
• Nationally, over
50% of all adopted animals are no longer in their adoptive home after just the first year.
If it was so easy why are close to 12 Million pets euthanized every year.
If you really want to learn about what goes on with our pets volunteer some time at your local animal control or human society.
Oh and by the way - there are many members on YT who have adopted rescued Yorkies and they think they are perfect. Many of these adopted little ones are AKC and are quite beautiful.
