Don't buy a dog! There are plenty of good ones in need of adoption.
We've had Trooper a year now. We learned quickly that he needs to run every day and that is why he was probably returned to the shelter twice before Lily "found" him in need of a home. He's grown on all of us and I think he's one of the sweetest dogs I've ever encountered. If you're thinking of buying a puppy or dog this Christmas, reconsider and look in the shelters and foster homes first. Every rescue needs a little extra love and attention but in my experience, they make the most loyal pets.
