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

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.
