[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a purebred dog who was, in fact, a shelter dog. I don't announce she's a rescue but I don't believe in breeding to increase the dog population when so many animals are homeless. Sorry.[/quote]

[b]For every dog purchased from a breeder, a rescue dog who needs a home dies.

It is unethical to purchase dogs from breeders.  IMO.  I think less of people who do it.[/quote]

You should get another rescue dog then.  And another.  And another.  You are personally responsible for all those dogs not in your house right now that just died.  How selfish of you, to limit the amount of dogs you have.  You should move to a 10-acre plot in WV and rescue 100 dogs.  Look, 100 dogs will die tomorrow because you were too selfish to change your lifestyle to save them.

Do you see where I'm going here?  Did you not learn anything about trying to understand other people's points of view from the election?  You're actually hurting the cause by being so nasty.

BTW I foster rescue dogs, and we are getting one from a breeder.  That's the best fit for our family.  It's breeder dog or none, so I guess we came out ahead as far as dog karma goes.

Oh look, another dog just died because you didn't save it.  [/quote]

You are the one being nasty.

I don't believe for a second that you foster rescue dogs.  No dog foster mom would lecture people about not saving every dog on the planet.  That's not possible for anyone.  YOU are hurting the cause by saying such nonsense.

And I honestly do not believe that an experienced dog foster mom would get a dog from a breeder.  It shows an inconsistency in values that I just don't buy.

If you foster rescue dogs, you already know the lesson I am teaching my kids when we send each foster dog off to his new home:

"We can't adopt every dog.  But by fostering, we are able to save many lives instead of just one permanently adopted dog".

You posted your nasty post above because you feel defensive  about getting a dog from a breeder.  As you should.  Because doing so encourages the birth of more, and more,  and more dogs, adding to the terrible problem  of unwanted dogs in society.

And bringing the election into it, what nonsense.
