Well...

But if you're willing to pay $500 to purchase a purebred puppy, I would think that driving 5 hours to rescue one isn't too outlandish a thought. I drove an eight hour round-trip to get Charlie, and I have NOT regretted it a minute since.

I'm not the onedriving though. My mom is...Remember I'm only 13

I'm speaking in generalities here. In theory it would actually be CHEAPER to make the trip to rescue rather than purchase purebred from a breeder. And since you're only 13 you can't possibly be held 100% responsible for what happens to a puppy, or the care for the puppy. Your mom will. Therefore I think your mom should really do her research into what would be the best for you and your mom rather than just put money into another purebred puppy again right away

We arent getting the puppy right away...It will be over a month. I'll just see how everything goes this weekend...

Well said, Jessica. Your mom shouldn't be making you do the research. I'm glad that you are, but she needs to help you out.
