[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]8:56 and 8:57 - poor folks are not all bad and even people not as wealthy as you, have the right to save poor dogs.[/quote] I have friends that fit into this category. They generally adopt from shelters, because rescue fees are too high. That requires waiting, watching, and pretty much jumping in as soon as a new dog is posted, to get a good fit. I will tell you though that things are hard when dogs need $$$$ vet care. For instance, one friend had her dog blow TWO CCLs, and that surgery was in the thousands of dollars, which she didn't have. She sold a lot of personal belongings and her artwork to raise the funds, and her friends helped out by buying what she was selling (she would not accept charity). And she used Care Credit. And I'm sure she ate a lot of Ramen for years. A lot of people would have either given the dog up to a shelter, or PTS.[/quote]
