[quote=Anonymous]It's supply and demand. 50 years ago no one was willing to pay $700 for a cocker spaniel or whatever because puppies were common. In the 70s my aunts cocker spaniel had half poodle puppies and she gave them away for free to coworkers! Now responsible people neuter their dogs and then act shocked when there are fewer puppies. But there are more buyers as our population has grown. The rescues wouldn't be charging so much if people weren't willing to pay. They presumably charge less for less desirable dogs. Dogs are indeed luxury items and no one wants to admit that. No one actually needs a dog and they are horrendously expensive. I don't have one for that reason. [/quote]
