I understand what you are saying, Pam and agree completely..that is why I said...



I would also like to say that I knew absolutely nothing about Rescue sites, puppy mills or anything of that nature before Gracie..and now since I am on 4 pet forums, I have learned so much. If I knew then what I knew now I would have looked for my baby a whole different way,

I know so much more now...didn't have a clue before I got her..I am glad I have her tho, wouldn't want to be without her, but yep, I could have gotten a baby that needed a good home..at a rescue site or shelter...for less than $100 and would have loved them too, but its too late now, I love my Gracie..

According to Cheryl, the one who sold her on consignment, she is not going to do it again. The experience with the shop was fine, it was the parting with puppies..she doesn't want to go thru it again. She says the $ was not worth it. There were 2 puppies in the litter, so she made $800 and I am sure the pet store got a good chunk. Plus she paid 1st shots...so minus that...and she doesn't want to put her toy poodle thru another pregnancy..she said its just too much worrying.

Bottom line is...I love Gracie...no matter what she is..and am glad I have her..BUT if I had to do it over again...no, I would have gone to a shelter and started from there...and fallen in love with mutt..but too late now~~~~~~~~
