A few years back we brought two Lab/Rotty cross pups to the fair to get socailized and maybe find a home....Well my mom had a ceramic booth at the fair and the pups would sit by me....a kid next to use from the FFA booth LOVED CJ our pure black pup and really wanted him, The boy must have been about 16 or 17 and he just wouldnt set the pup down...I think he fell in love with it on the spot. We told him that if he could get his parents to agree and in a few weeks still wanted the pup to give us a call. Well when his dad came over and looked at the pup sleeping on my brothers lap he gave me a discusted look and said "No i think we'll get YOU a purebreed, instead of this mutt." My mom told me this and I lost my temper. I mean sure some people pefer purebred but he didnt have to act like that. I was SO mad. I couldnt find the guy but while walking my pups I found a fellow rotty lover and we swapped some amazing stories...which told me that there are still really great people out there.

I too am lucky family wise on my dad's side....my mom's side couldn't keep pets if there life depended on it...my mom and uncle perry are exceptions they love animals.
