[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I think I need to accept that maybe the word "rescue" has come to mean something different in this scenario. I think of the word as very heroic, so if somebody frequently says they rescued their dog, or calls their dog a "rescue," I think they're bragging. Or I feel like they should only use that word if they actually lifted a burning car off the dog. So maybe all "rescue" means is "adopted" or "picked a stray up off the street." Not to demean the actions, it's the only way I'd get a pet. But like I said before I never even use the word. I mean, people who adopt children from an overseas orphanage are surely rescuing the kids from a terrible life. But nobody would EVER say their kid is a rescue! [/quote]
