Oh it's ridiculous! I tried to adopt one an American Staff and I wanted the pup so I could train it correctly to act nicely to people and other animals around. Since I believe that's fixed when they are young. In order for me to adopt a puppy for $400 I had to fill out an application and someone from the local adoption center needed to come out and Survey my property and inspect the inside of my house. I think that is ridiculous for saving the life of a puppy. I never abused my animals never raised a hand towards them. I believe that patience and proper training techniques can take care of everything. I don't however, believe that I need to go through a physical, have my penis measured, and have a colonoscopey done just to own a pet.Go look at what people are selling dogs for!!!!
My daughters want a dog (I want one too) so ive been trying to find a border collie, Australian shepherd, or Blue heeler. I have looked at pet stores and searched for breeders on google and these idiots want like $4000 for a freaking dog!! If they're actually selling dogs for these prices they are making a killing, ODT ammo flippers dont have anything on the profit these dog breeders are making. When the heck did dogs become so valuable?
