I thought shelters would not even let you take a dog unless
it was spayed or neutered first. I am very surprised?

They don't normal.....I'm just known there and they know I wont over breed, put any dog health at risk etc etc.

It was just their way of helping me out. Right now I have over 90 some rescue animals and the bills can get very high, so this is their way of helping with my bills. Times are tight for them, as well as me....so this was the compromise we came up with.

If it wasn't for this I would have had to turn away some animlas....leaving the shelter with no choice but to put them down. There are not alot of people in my area that are willing to help, so I'm guessing they want to keep me around a while. Plus the woman has a soft heart.

OK, some rescued, and some were given,, some were paid for very dearly...............

I didn't think I would ever pay as much as I did for a dog, but I did, and I'm not sorry. I've done rescue both with cats and dogs, and bought some too.

I rescued a dog, that didn't live long, and I paid for a dog that didn't live..so what is the difference? Your Heart breaks just the same!

It is up to the person, and what they wish to do......and what they want to own.

I have seen some very nasty rescued dogs that took pleasure in biting the hand that fed them........then I've witnessed a very expensive dog, well he is mean as anything, and I wouldn't want anyone to be close to him when his nature changes.

So, do what you want to do.

I love my girl and she loves everybody, a more sweet dog, I have never met, or owned....and I've owned 9 now....one after the other.
