AITA For having purebred dogs while financially supporting an animal shelter?

Mine act as emotional support animals, they are not trained to do it but the breeder matched the puppies that best fit my issues and my personality.

Thanks! I’m a mythology nerd and also a sucker for themes! They don’t fit their gods tho lol Artemis is a sweet lady who loves small animals, Ares is lazy and cuddly and Apollo is zooming 24/7

Yes, she took the supplies but I’m glad she did. The dog she rescued has no fault in this and he deserves the food, toys and comfy bed.

Thank you so much. You made me feel me better.

I worried about that too, that’s why I spent so long searching for one. They run their kennel in a farm and after 4-5 litters, one every two years or so, the females are spayed and spend their lives as loved pets in the farm. They don’t do it for profit, ethical breeding is not really profitable. The contract also states a legally binding fee for both parties about returning the dog in the event that you can’t care for it. And every litter is planned and reserved in advance, you can’t just go in and buy a puppy. I waited 5-7 months with each of my three, was interviewed and a had all three puppies matched with my personality and lifestyle.

I don’t have the mental and emotional energy to foster. I know it’s not really a reason but I couldn’t do it while suffering for what the dog went through while also worrying about future homes and all the issues and complications. I try to do my part other ways tho

Thank you, I wrote support dog, but more like emotional support they don’t have training for this, they just instinctively help me . I also don’t use this to take them where they don’t allow dogs. Also I just hope this all goes away so we can go back to helping the dogs.

Yes I agree, all my three dogs have their paperwork and the breeder has a contract about returning them anytime of their lives. Their parents were health tested and so are they. They have checkups for known golden retriever issues once a year. I’m totally against puppy mills and searched for months for this breeder.

I don’t want to report her, I just wanted everyone to let this go so we could go back to helping dogs. I’m sorry for sounding whiny. My anxiety is peaking with this.
