[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This isn't true. Plenty of people in apartments adopt dogs from rescues (including my family).[/quote]
So true, why would you say it's not if somebody has a different experience? The rescue didn't even consider and apartment and turned my sister down because of the height of their fence.
My sister and BIL had a rottweiler and the dog had a great life-walks on trails and later on big back yard. They also spent thousands of dollars on him over his lifetime at the vet. We grew up on a farm, my sister studied to become a veterinarian before we left the old country, so it's wrong to always assume that people adopting animals don't know what they are getting themselves into. Anyway, so after their dog passed, the wanted to adopt another rottweiler, but were told their fence wasn't high enough. The rescue left with the dog and they haven't had a dog since. I'm glad they are not going to the breeder, but were very put off by the rescue.
Big back yard, no kids or dogs to play in it. She caught on camers fox cubs playing on her back porch until they got tired and fell asleep there.
