[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The number one reason dogs are put down is because they can't be trained. They become unruly and the family can't handle them. So thoughtfully picking a calm dog that is trainable was the most responsible thing to do.

OP - fight fire with fire.

"So why didn't you save a dog"
"It's a service dog."
"Really why do you need a service dog"
"Hmmm - I don't really usually talk to strangers about my families medical conditions - pause - I am sure you understand."

+100 bold above
I have a pure breed because there is something powerfully beautiful (to me) about my dog's classic appearance.  She is simply gorgeous, inside and out, and I have joy every single time I see her standing in a certain way that her breed has proudly displayed for centuries.  I have wanted this certain breed dog since I was 11 years old.  Beyond loving my dog and caring for her incredibly well, her looks bring back happy memories to me from my childhood.  There is more to having a pure breed than the old and tired breeder vs. rescue debate.  OP, thank you for your post.[/quote]

So get a pure bred!  Why do you need to get it from  a breeder is the question for me.[/quote]

Because the breed I wanted is never available at a shelter.  I have tried for YEARS.  I have wanted this particular dog badly since I was a little girl and the fact that I am now 49 with a 10 month old pure breed puppy is not a coincidence but because I WAS waiting for one to be available to rescue.  And before anyone goes on and on about how every type of dog is always available please do not.  I waited for years trying.  I have over a decade of e-mail correspondence and other communications to prove it.  [/quote]
