BACKYARD BREEDERS!
It's a sad life for some dogs. They are being brought into this world, just to die. Harsh words I know, but it's the truth. I work with Pound Buddies up at Vector Control and it's not always a pretty sight. We get lots of pure breeds in such as St. Bernards, German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Beagles, Husky's, Labs, etc... Where did these dogs come from? Most pure breed dogs come from breeders. How did a pure breed end up at the pound? I have the answer to this question. It's because they are backyard breeders and they don't care who buys one of their pups as long as they are paying for it in cash. People will pay anywhere from 50-1200 dollars for a purebreed because then they'll breed the dog they bought and make all that money back, plus more! Now, don't get me wrong, their are a few out there who actually do take care of their dog. As many as I see though, it is only a few. Mutts are common too. That's why I discourage giving dogs or any animals, as gifts. My foster dog Pebbles was a wedding gift and do you wanna know where she lived her life? On a chain, in a cat carrier, in someones backyard. If you are looking for a pet please don't go to a breeder. We have what your looking for at Vector Control in Muskegon, MI ready for you to adopt from Pound Buddies. Because what happens to the dogs that don't get adopted or fostered... their last breath is taken right before the needle hits.
