If I want a mutt I'll go to a shelter. If I want a pureblood I'll go to a reputable breeder or a rescue organization. If I want a goldfish I might go to a pet store.

Rescues are a great source. We adopted our Golden Retriever through GRREAT, and he really IS great! He’s now a certified Therapy Dog, visits the local Childrens’ Hospital, is on call for special cases at several local General Hospitals, and visits a local elementary school for their Reading Buddies program for disadvantaged kids. Our next dog will DEFINITELY come from a breed rescue program.

Spot on! I would never buy a puppy from the puppy mill retailers!
