personally i would never get a dog from a breeder..all my dogs are rescues and well i am not saying that reptuable breeders are bad my aunt is one..and it does bother me somewhat but if i tell her not to do it doesn't mean she won't..and well i just would only get rescued dogs or from a pound or a shelter or a rescue group..and i just feel strongly about getting from a breeder just because others do it doesn't mean i'll do it..
