[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We adopted from the breeder as no rescue puppies were available. Things were closed because of covid then.[/quote] You didn’t adopt. You made a purchase.[/quote] Yeah, you don't adopt from good breeders. The exception is if you are an established client of theirs (not some random stranger who wants to "adopt") and they "take back" a dog whose owner no longer can keep him/her or is in a bad situation (good breeders will always "take back" or "repossess" their dogs before letting them go to a shelter or be abused). In those cases, they will reach out private to existing clients who have purchased dogs from them before (and therefore have breed-specific expertise) and taken good care of them and ask them to take the dog. My family shows a specific breed of dog and we got one of our dogs this way from the breeder we purchased two other dogs from. But the bottom line is, top breeders never let their dogs end up being "adopted" by families who they don't know closely nor do they let them end up at shelters. [/quote]
