[quote=Anonymous]PP-where did you get your information?  What you said is so untrue!  A lot of rescues are give-ups and yes, some are abused, but if they're going to be adopted out-their temperment is tested.  The shelters and rescue groups in the DC area are very careful about who they adopt to-and VERY VERY careful about families with children under the age of 4.

Most of the rescues I know are sweet, loving and grateful to have a home.  I found our dog, a purebred Yorkie, as a puppy.  I took her to Alexandria shelter, because I was sure someone would be looking for her.  No one did-so we brought her home.  Yorkie's aren't suppose to be good with children-but our girl is exceptional with our son!  And he's infatuated with her-is constantly touching her, laying his head on her and she has never once nipped or bit him.  I consider her a rescue!

The truth is-people give up their pets.  Not a great example to set for a child-but it's a fact.  I've never heard anyone say rescues + children = bad.  Not every dog is a pit bull!!![/quote]
