Every dog we have owned has come from shelters or from Rescue. We currently have two Old English Sheepies, both from rescue. With rescue or adoption you are saving a live and if you get an older dog, you will probably get a dog who is trained to some degree (pottie and leash). Both of our sheepies were four years or older when we adopted them and I just can't recommend it enough. I do however recommend that you do your research into the type of dog you want in your life. I feel we would have fewer dogs in shelters or rescue if we uprights did our homework.
