[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]8:56 and 8:57 - poor folks are not all bad and even people not as wealthy as you, have the right to save poor dogs.[/quote]
Nobody thinks a person is bad for being poor, but 1) no one has an automatic right to a dog, no matter how much money they have and 2) veterinary care is very expensive and if you can’t provide it, you’re not necessarily able to “save” a dog.[/quote]

oh man, that sounds awfully judgmental.[/quote]
WTF there is nothing judgmental about it.  Why do many dogs end up back with rescues? Because the owners can't afford the vet bills.  
When you adopt a child, you have to show that you're solvent to pay for it.  You can't help an animal if you can't afford basic care and food. My gosh eople have taken being "inclusive" way too far and lost all common sense. [/quote]

Calm down Sally. Unable or unwilling to pay 400 adoption fee up-front has nothing to do with what kind of life dog will live post adoption. It has nothing to do with being "inclusive" (or not). It has everything to do with the fact that everyone is capable of giving love regardless of their SES. Money doesn't buy everything you know? [/quote]

But money does buy food and vet care. Love is necessary, but not sufficient.  [/quote]
