[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 431200, member: 3419"] Malika, if you get a dog from the rescue, make sure you know the history, who relinquished it, and why. That is SO important! I've done lots of rescues, and 2 breeders, and it makes a difference. My biggest mistake was adopting a dog that was beautiful, and which I felt sorry for. Never, never, never adopt a dog you feel sorry for. Even if you know it's going to be put down the next day and you're panicking. Especially with-a difficult child. You are doing this for your child and your family, not the dog. Really. Grow a rhino skin. Be tough. [/QUOTE]
