[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We went to a shelter first and there were only Pitbulls or pitbull mixes. I wasn’t bribing one home. I don’t care what others think. They can bring whatever dog they want to their home. So can I. [/quote] This. I would love to adopt from a shelter or rescue, as every dog I had in my childhood and young adulthood was a shelter dog. But I have 2 young children now, and our local shelters are full of pitt bulls and pit bull mixes, and that's pretty much it. I understand that they can be great dogs, but it is hard to tell a dog's temperament in a shelter environment, and I am aware that some of these shelters are incentivized to move these dogs along and my not be completely forthcoming about their history. I can't take that risk with my kids. We are planning on working with a breeder...and I never thought I would go that route. But the shelters are absolutely overrun with pit bulls now.[/quote]
