PLEASE DO NOT BUY FROM A BREEDER, DO NOT SUPPORT BREEDING! I wish I could get this point across to people. There are sooooooo many homeless dogs that need a good home-go to the shelter and save a life. Go to a rescue organization. I deal with "breeders" all of the time and 99% of them are not legit! Many people get puppies, pay outrageous prices and then if the puppy is sick soon after adoption they don't have the money to pay for veterinary care.
If you had to see healthy puppies euthanzised everyday maybe you would understand-I think people should have to watch this. First they should have to play with the puppy for a few hrs, take it for a walk, get to know it and then watch it be put to sleep-is this sadistic-maybe but it is reality. I do it all the time.
SAVE A LIFE! go to the shelter
ok off my soapbox, but this is a subject that is near and dear to my heart b/c I deal with it everyday.
