Thanks, Mirela. I could outtalk this entire forum on my anger towards irresponsible owners, irresponsible breeders and show people I detest but I rarely get the opportunity to start. Never mind, I just felt that it should be made plain that dogs don't go from the whelping box straight into shelters, they go to irresponsible owners, and if those people didn't exist(I'm talking about an ideal world here) then there wouldn't be all that breeding going on. If breeders were selling to people who never discarded dogs like old shoes then the market wouldn't be there for them to sell puppies. So, I blame bad owners for a LOT of the problems. And, before anyone says that breeders should vet owners better, a lot of people can really con a breeder big time, coming over like veritable saints, and those same people might just as easily con staff at rescues.
