[quote=Anonymous]Please, please, please look into breed-specific rescues before buying from a breeder. I get all the reasoning behind it, I do, but there really are pure bred dogs out there available for rescue and often times they are in foster care or home rescue networks rather than the pound. You may have to wait a little longer to be matched with the right dog for you (both in terms of what you want and what the rescue dog needs), but it's worth it. Also, look into fostering some of the other "hypoallergenic" dog breeds and maybe you can broaden your search outside Havanese if you find that some of the others don't trigger your allergies. At the very least, take your kids to a kill shelter and show them what you're choosing to do. That would be a better lesson on the death of a pet than just having a rescue pet die a year or two earlier than a purchased puppy. [/quote]
