I like mixed breeds the best though.
Cosign. I always thought of rescue dogs as troubles, but my mom's dog hasn't been much trouble at all. You can tell that he was abused (you can't pick up a newspaper in front of him, or raise your hand, even in jest - the poor thing just cringes and backs into a corner), but love is conquering that!
