I am sad every time I hear someone saying that they just bought their new pet from either a breeder or pet store. There are so many good dogs in shelters that need our help, but still people rather put up $$$$ to get a certain breed. Or maybe it's just laziness, so much easier to put up a $100 or whatever amount than actually fill out an application at a shelter???!! Well not sure why so many people won't help a shelter animal, but I know for sure that we will never buy one. All our animals came from shelters and they are the best "friends" we could have ever gotten!

Do you buy your pets and why? Or do you help an animal from a shelter?
