    All but one of the dogs I have had in my life are/were rescues. The first dog I had (I got him when I was 2) was from a friend whose "spayed" bitch had a litter. (It's rare, but it happens, though less often now than 20 years ago)

    Thank you Wolf_Q!

    I thought that was impossible, because when they perform a spay they remove the ENTIRE uteris??

    Mandy is from the shelter and Luka is from the humane society. Nova is from a BYB because I didn't know better at the time. The next dog I'm getting is a Great Dane and I already have a breeder picked out. I would get a rescue, but puppies are much easier for Mandy to adjust to. Of course, this is probably over a year away (maybe even two years) and if Mandy has settled down by then I will *definetly* adopt. I'd always rescue before buying from a breeder so long as the situation permits.

    Fenway is a rescue from PA. He was found in a box on the side of a road with his brothers when they were puppies. He & his brothers were brought to a rescue organization in NH and I was lucky enough to be picked as his "Mum".

    Most of you around here know that Roxey is from a pet store, Bon is from a breeder and Huney was dumped in the country and we brought her home.

    Huney, Bon & Simba-missed so very much
