Breeder or Pound
Are you thinking about a pet? With many people not able to afford to keep the family pet and having to give them up should you rescue or purchase a pet from the humane society or buy a pedigreed breed from a breeder that you know is soundly bred?
Some people believe that purebred dogs from reputable breeders are the only way to go. With a dog from a breeder you get a guarantee, after care and a dog breed with known history and characteristics. With a pound dog, you need to be careful – but you know you’ll be saving a dog that needs you. Also a pound dog can be more economical.
