Why You Should NOT Buy a Dog, 💜ADOPT💜 Instead

Buying from a backyard breeder or pet stores can greatly impact future medical costs and heres why: Backyard breeders/pet stores are solely focused on making a profit from the pets that they are selling, which meant that they won't put in the time and effort to make sure that the dogs are receiving all of their medical care and treatments. They purchase from puppy mills and other unethical institutions so they most likely won't know the true breed of the dog, which is crucial information for vets to provide correct medical treatments.

If you do purchase the dog, vets will charge you higher prices to thoroughly examine your dog for its breed and health history. If you ADOPT, you would avoid all of those extra costs since shelters and rescues usually use adoption fees to cover all of your dog's expenses like microchip, medical care, heartworm care, and in some cases spay/neuter. This makes it easier for vets to examine and provide your dog with the necessary care, thus, making your vet costs CHEAPER!
