Youre not playing a numbers game because youre not the one rescuing the dog, youre doing nothing here but injecting negativity on the internet, if youre not gonna actually step up and save a dog then the last thing those of us that do save dogs need to hear is your ignorant advice
@Gutter Chris is doing an amazing thing by giving that poor abused dog a chance at a loving life and he deserves to be commended for it
Good job, Chris, you know how I feel about rescues because we've talked many times about how horribly my beloved ole Fred dog was abused before I got him and he was the most gentle, loving soul you ever met, he gave me 12 years of amazing companionship and I miss him every day
Abused dogs deserve love most of all
I've saved plenty of animals from shelters, just not a dog yet at this point in my life, though I'm on the hunt after summer. My point is that thousands of dogs deserve a second chance. So for me....it makes much more sense to give a second chance to a dog with less risk of PTSD freakouts. So dogs have to die and some dogs get adopted, such is the way of world in the US right now. So I'd just be inclined to pick a safer dog. But that's just me.
One of my buddies lived off grid and had a pit and a lab. He had the pit since it was a puppy and that was the nicest dog I ever met unless you were a stranger. Then he adopted this neglected lab. That stupid adopted lab bit me frickin' twice though!! Dumb dog. That being said, I'd rather be bit by the lab than the pit.
