Biden's Puppy Breeder: "Never, Never, Never Again" | NBC Philadelphia
Now on to what I have to say about this, as if anyone cares.
When it comes time to get a dog I am going to be pretty specific as to what I want. If I can find the puppy that fits that bill, then I will adopt from a shelter. But most of the time you cannot find what you want, and you don't know the family history behind the dog you are adopting.
For example. I was wanting an English Mastiff with good genetics as to have less of a chance to get hip problems. I looked around at the shelters online first. I found multiple dogs, even a local rescue house that had a whole family of Neopolitan Mastiffs, which I would have gladly rescued(one of the puppies).
I contacted various rescue facilities trying to adopt one of these puppies instead of buying from a breeder. All said either you can't adopt because we don't want to come that far to inspect your house, or other various excuses.
A breeder doesn't ask those questions. You pay and you pick the puppy you want. Every place that I have rented has had a very large "play" area near it that I would gladly take a pup to play at.
So I guess what I am saying is, if they didn't make it so hard to adopt/rescue one of these pets that NEED you to take it home, then maybe more would be adopted.
