[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live near a dog park so people are often walking by with their dogs. My kids sometimes say something to passersby, like "your dog is adorable!" And 9 times out of 10 the response is a variation of "thanks, he's a rescue." Do the rescue groups tell people to answer that way? My kids don't really understand what it means (or at least they didn't at first), so I don't think it's a flex to look like saviors or something. Is it like a subtle advertisement for rescuing pets? Or defensive, like not wanting to look like they support bad breeders? Just curious why this is almost always the response.[/quote] I have two dogs from a shelter and I think it’s weird as hell to answer “They’re rescues!” if anyone says they’re cute. If someone asks the breed I just say they are mixes.[/quote]
