Somehow I find this funny, but I'm sitting downstairs reading through posts and I can hear my hubby upstairs in bed with Walter calming him down cause he's having a freak out. It happens, and I think he’s entitled to do so!
Here's the thing, you can't say it's not ok to put Walter down cause of his puppy mill horror, but it is ok for another dog. They ALL have reasons for what they do and we can't possibly know why.
Unless a dog is a SERIOUS threat to a human, then just simply PTS is not an option. On a much lesser note, it's like saying my car broke down once, have it crushed. I mean seriously, they are not objects they are not just things! They have feelings, emotions, good and bad days.
And again, I get that a lot of people on here have 'their' breeds. If you are thinking about buying from a pet store, PLEASE remember what I've said about Walter. His life was APPALLING. If you love your breed, go to a rescue (who usually have puppies) or to a breeder that truly wants to better the breed and did the appropriate genetic testing. If all else fails, come to ME! Give me a couple months and I WILL find the dog for you within a 50 mile radius. I try not to preach, but awareness is the only way. You will love a rescue pup just as much!
