Question about Rescue Dogs...

[Pam]

Okay thank you everyone.


She's ignorant on all subjects

I would prefer to use the word uninformed. We are all in a learning process in this life. As we open ourselves up to new ideas we become better informed. I hope your mom will be willing to listen.

One of the many definitions of ignorant is uninformed. Lacking in knowlege.
Ignorant, in my opinion, is very fitting in this situation.

This is a picture of a shelter dog.

For eight years, this dog was the dog that all of the neighborhood toddlers met first. My son used her as a step stool to put his sippy cup on the dining room table. The night before she died of cancer, she slept on the end of his bed to keep the nightmares away.

I am sorry that your mom feels the way that she does. It is really too bad that she is unwilling to help some great dog find a forever home.

Oh she is beautiful! And obviously very well behaved. I am sorry about your loss.

Thank you. She was truly a beautiful soul and is sorely missed.

These are my first two shelter dogs with my sister. What do you think? We now have 5 shelter dogs and ALL are well behaved. None of them have ever tried to bite me. (Except my mom's dog, but she's not from a shelter) None of my shelter dogs have any major issues other than just being dogs. The one purebred that isn't from a shelter is the one that's been the hardest to housebreak, too.

I agree with Kay, she does sound ignorant on this subject.

Although she does make a point, I don't believe that shelters will sell dogs that are aggressive.

Look at all the wonderful rescue dogs here on PT, and there are lots!
