To answer why people say one thing and do another is impossible...maybe it is because they know it is what "you" ( whoever you might be) want to hear; Perhaps it is the thought at the moment, or maybe it realy was the intention and things changed.


No matter how we feel about breeders, shelters, or pet stores, look at all the pets on PT. They all came from different backgrounds, different situations, whether purebred or mixed breed, adopted as puppies or kittens or adults. Think of the bond their owner has formed with them, and ask yourself, how could they have NOT gotten that pet? Maybe we wouldn't all get our pets from the same place we did this time, but that doesn't make anyone's pet less special or less valuable or any person here stupid. JMO
