Dog Rescues Review

We have rescued all our pets over the years from various sources.  Our current dog family members were both rescued, the border collie/lab mix from the (pound) humane society (Lex was returned to the pound and then sent to the local men's prison for training) and he is a doll!  With his new training he came to our family and fit in like a dream!  We have had him for two years now, and just added a Shih Tzu to the family this past October.  I found Roscoe on Craigslist, he belonged to a family that could not keep up with his grooming and care, I ended up driving about 400 miles in one day round trip to pick him up (including a trip to his vet for records that turned into a visit for a checkup and shots), the owner waived the rehoming fee of $50 because I was willing to travel so far, figured that I was a good placement for her dog.  He is a great addition to our family!!!  Lex loves him and treats him so well, they play and sleep all day together (love to watch them play tug-of-war with the rope toys, LOL).   They are best buddies, and the whole family enjoys having him with us. 

I cannot imagine paying hundreds or more for a companion when there are so many loving dogs out there in need of adoption. I would and do reccommend adoption to anyone I know that is looking for a new addition to their family, we have never been dissappointed, only joy has been brought to our home....just do it!!
