I respectfully disagree with your comment on pets. My wife and I have rescued 6 dogs, four of which are still with us and we never had a moment when they where not well behaved and loving. A rescued dog will love you, of course you have to show it kindness and love in return. A pet bought in a pet store? you had better know what was bred into that dog.

I agree. I always adopt grown dogs (used) because you can tell their personality. You get a puppy at a pet store - you have no idea what their personality is.

I like mellow, non-destructive and obedient dogs. I don’t like hyper, destructive animals whose only goal is to get out of the fence and run off. Who knows what kind of personality that cute little puppy will end up with?

Besides, so many animals are killed every year - these used animals need homes.
