That sort of makes puppies sounds like some kinda of brand new Kenmoore washer and dryer, warrantee included. :(
The puppies in the pound must be the used appliance store, huh?:( :rolleyes: :(
We're not buying from a breeder because of the warrenty.
We're buying from one because we have been researching the Westie breed and my mother loved them all her life. We would rescue but no dog in rescue is right for US.
We would rather have a puppy because then it could adapt to the things the dogs in the rescues can't such as living with other dogs and our other critters.

Rescue dogs CAN adapt quite well, and do. Ask my two. :) You can probably find a puppy in rescue too.
Not likely though. We've talked to westie rescues and they rarely have puppies:(
What do you consider puppies? 8 or 9 week olds? They probaly dont get many of those that young, but puppies are still considered puppies up to a year old, sometimes even longer. :)Quote:

I think a warantee can be good for someone who has decided that they couldn't afford a puppy after all. I was watching a show on T.V. and they had a lady who had just bought her most longed-for breed, a french bulldog. After about a month, she realized that she just didn't have any time for the poor thing, so she brought it back, got her money back, and the breeder found it a new home.Quote:

Although when a warantee is only used as a convenience for getting "rid of" a dog, that is just plain stupid and wrong. Warantees atleast do have up sides to them.
