Absolutely, and if people would go to their local shelters instead of these pet shops then many of these puppy mills would decline and go out of business...there's too much inbreeding now...just look at the Irish Setter, there has been so much inbreeding that the dogs are STUPID!(and I love the breed! LOL)

I've always said Americans (not any1 else) are making the German Shepherd go the way exactly of the Irish Setter. Hell, they (the American types) are as skinny and over-tall as the latter have become!

This is Buster -- adopted two weeks ago from a Rottweiler rescue organization.

Better to light a candle for one lost dog
than to curse the darkness of man's indifference.
Saving just one dog won't change the world
but it surely will change the world for that one dog.
