For anyone who re homes a stray or abandoned dog Iāve nothing but respect for you, for anyone who buys (at reasonable price) a cross breed/mongrel Iāve nothing but respect for you, theres nothing wrong with having a mongrel, whatās wrong is the dog breeders who need locking up for the awful conditions they rear the puppies in, if the dog is a pure bred most expensive puppy on the planet they wont be anymore loyal and loving than a scabby mongrel you find wandering the streets, if Iād been writing this 9 years ago Iām ashamed to say Iād have thought anyone getting upset over dogs being farmed was daft, then 8 + years ago against my better judgement (I thought) I bought a pedigree shih tzu to placate her indoors, she has been the love of my life from the moment I went to see her at the breeders, home bred by a couple who had the mom and dad of the pups, cost was a reasonable 450, money now would be of no matter at all, if she needed treatment Iād sell my soul to look after her, people who steal dogs, puppy farms etc etc are scum who need putting down.
Rant over for now.
