Dogs: Breeder or Pound?
Eventually I'd like to get a dog. In fact, I pretty much already know the answer to this question for myself, but I'm curious about what other people have to say.
See, I've heard bad things about breeders in general (no doubt a good one can be found with a little work), and when it comes down to it pure-breeding dogs just isn't that great for their gene pool anyway. On the other hand, pound dogs often come with unknown baggage and may have a less predictable temperament. Not to mention the issue of domesticated animal overpopulation.
So, what say you? Should people get dogs from pounds over breeders or do you not care?
