All of mine came out of 'free' adds so I rescued them in a way. Nobody else would have taken them if we wouldn't have. They could have ended up on the streets or in a shelter. :(
I do plan on adopting/rescuing all of my animals I have in the future :)
All of mine are shelter babies and strays. My fosters are kill shelter rescues as well.
I said pet store, breeder, and other. I got my mice, snake, and guinea pig at a pet store. I got Annabelle, my pug, from a breeder. Other was my cats and my rabbit. My cats came from my horseback riding instructor a couple of years ago and my rabbit was from a fair in New Hampshire.

Dogs...
Shadow - My Aunt...not sure where she got her from, probably a byb

Kyra - we became BYBs :( :(
What we did was horrible, I wish I would have found PT earlier or tried harder to convince my parents that breeding Min was a bad idea...but its been 13 months since Ky has been a part of our life now...I really wish we wouldn't have done it!

RB Retread was from a humane society. My mom got him when he was 5 weeks old (this was back in 1983).
RB Buttons was given to us by a then-stranger (she's now my mom's best friend). She's not really a dog person and she bought two at once, one was Buttons and the other was his father (puppy mill of course), and when my brother begged for him (he was little and cute ;)) she said we could have him.
Mandy's a shelter baby, we got her at 8 weeks. She was a-freaking-dorable too :p
Nova's from a backyard breeder. Never, ever again. She is my heart dog and I will never, ever regret buying her but I just hate that she has so many horrible health problems and she's only a year old :(
Luka's a humane society dog, was probably from a backyard breeder originally judging soley by her conformation (mismark, underbite, dudley). We adopted her in November when she was almost 2 years old. She was abused really bad before the humane society got her.
Buck is from a reputable breeder.
Zsa-Zsa was bought from a breeder. Tia came from a pet shop. But don't worry, it is a very good pet shop and I know the lady that owns it. She takes very good care of the animals and doesn't interbreed and stuff.
