It is getting extremely difficult to hold my tongue when I see someone spending several hundred dollars for a pure breed dog. Do these people not walk through a shelter with hundreds of little furry faces looking through a cage....faces that could be simply discarded if a certain number is exceeded? Do they not understand that they could literally save the life of one of these little creatures? Instead they create the demand for pure breed puppies....dogs that will never be used for their breeds specific traits, targeted environments, or tasks. So go ahead...display your worthless piece of paper that tells us how pure your dog is. Tell me what your pure dog is known for as it sits chained to your porch, or sits in your apartment all day long expressing none of those traits but boredom. I will tell you how one of my dogs from Angels Left Behind lived in a trailer with 20+ dogs malnourished and abused had the ability to overcome his situation to play and snuggle on a daily basis. How my Rotti mutt rescue from Erins Midwest Animal ResQ page can open the sliding glass door to let herself outside. How my Border Collie mutt rescue can herd the entire family around the house, while maintaining a sweet disposition. My dogs arent better than your hundred/thousand dollar animal....I just know that I saved their lives by giving them a chance to live, and in return they give my life joy and entertainment.
