Me too. There's already far more children than people who want them. It's like the narcissistic notion of buying a dog from a breeder when hundreds are being put to death within 100 miles of most people every week.

I had friends back then that made much less than we did and bought twice as much house and then wondered why they could never do anything.

Look for a particular breed rescue if you must, but actively breeding more unless they are working dogs for livestock or sledding or such is not good. It is akin to saying "I could only value a blond headed child and should allow all other inferior children to be discarded."

I care not for the analogies between dogs and children.
I tried to find a softer quote from CK Chesterton, but only found this one, which is a bit strong in this instance, I admit.
“Wherever there is Animal Worship there is Human Sacrifice. That is, both symbolically and literally, a real truth of historical experience.” ~GKC: 'The Uses of Diversity.'
I draw a pretty hard line between people and earth’s other creatures.

My apologies for the excess drama. No personal attacks were intended.
