    Excellent! I am sorry for disparaging your contribution to the thread. I get really worked up about people supporting breeders who perpetuate unhealthy breeds, but of course the ones that already exist need good homes.

  It’s not his fault, be mad at the person who bred him, not him for existing.

    This dog is a rescue, so you are correct in this case. But people who buy unhealthy breeds from breeders are just as much the problem as the breeders themselves. If the demand for these breeds disappeared, the breeders would stop. It’s their job and they only exist to meet market demand.

      Honestly, I think anyone who buys any animal from a breeder is an asshole. The pounds have enough pets to satisfy nation wide demand and then some. There’s zero excuse not to get a rescue.

        I used to think this until one day I looked at a local shelters available dogs online and they were literally all pitbulls and other fighting dogs. Granted I was living in a shithole at the time but if your only options are no dog, dog that is at least 25% descended from something bred to be violent, and paying somebody who seems to not be 100% evil for a poodle I’m at least sympathetic to the third option now.
