"We adopted our lab from the pound. Good dog. Lasted 16 years. Then we had a cat die so got one from

thousand more dollars trying to fix an infection, we put it down. So I'm not too thrilled with the
pound either."


With all that trouble in the past, why not contact the local American Kennel Club for recommendations on reliable breeders of the dog you really like?
What's a grand or two to y'all.

There are far too many dogs needing a home to buy one from a breeder. Besides, "bred" dogs as a group are the most troublesome. Assholes buy bred dogs to show off at the park. A man tries to give a home to one that needs it.
