[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We adopted our last two dogs when they were 3 and 4 years old. They were a great addition to the family. One was diagnosed with Babesia, a tick disease. After thousands of dollars and many vet visits he was cured but I would not want that in a house with children. Dog gets a tick then child does and you have a sick child. Until a dog has blood work it is not known. Many shelters have tick problems and do not have the dogs tested. If you adopt have the dog tested before you bring it home. A family member did buy a French Bulldog from a breeder but she has the dogs genetically tested and does not run a puppy mill. Her waitlist is so long she could run a puppy mill if she wanted. She is inspected by several organizations and runs a tight ship.[/quote] Then don't get amimals at all. Everyone is prone to ticks..even your kid. And there is Frontline...can't put that on your kid, but you can put it on the dog. This argument has nothing to do with rescue dogs vs. Breeder dogs. [/quote]
