Hi, new here :)

No, we're not members of the dog park, but we're closer neighbors than I thought!

I'm one of those people that feels a dog should have a working purpose. I've done a lot of thinking about it, and if I look at my ethics, deep down, I really don't even think people have a place breeding toy dogs! Obviously, this brings up issues since 99% of dogs out there (aside from strays and village dogs) are pet animals, not working ones. For this reason, I've come to terms with the fact that there are going to be people breeding dogs for companion purposes, focusing on looks and calm temperament over working ability. However, with so many animals already in the world, I personally don't see the point in breeding more companion animals when there are so many unwanted animals in rescue that already have the traits that people are looking for. But like you said, each to their own!


And just because I've never posted pictures of him, this is our husky, Buddy. We got him from Free Spirit Siberian Rescue a little over 3 years ago. We think he's about 7 or 8.
