I agree with everyone else that is the best comment!!! COMMENT OF THE YEAR!!!!!

When I had Shaianne, I emailed a question to a greyhound rescue person and he responded that he wasn't sure if he could help b/c given where she came from she probably wasn't a purebred greyhound. But when I took her to work one day to show her to my boss at the time that had just put down his greyhound he said "oh she is definatly purebred" which is what I thought. All you had to do was look at her and could tell that, but that is irrelevant. I like everyone else didn't care!!!
AND THEN
When I got Keegan, I told my dad to tell a family "friend" that I was getting a golden. She always asked me about my dog and that is all we ever talked about. So I thought she would be happy that I was getting a golden b/c that is all they had ever had. Well, my dad told her when he saw her, and she said "Oh well, I am sure she isn't bred like mine are, mine is from Championship bloodlines, and she could be shown, I have papers on her she just isn't registered." I was like "WELL!" I thought, "I was good enough to have a dog but not a golden. I see." Well guess what babe? Mine is a purebred and she is registered with the AKC. All the good that does her, she is fixed and I didn't care anyway.

When I went to pick out a dog when I first got Shaianne. I went with the intention of getting a small scruffy mix breed. I didn't care about breed or anything. Of course, as soon as I looked into the deep brown eyes of that Greyhound I was lost forever and they will forever have a place in my heart.
