Island Dog encourages you to consider adopting from a shelter or a rescue group before you contact a puppy mill (pet shops) or a breeder. Please remember, puppy mills and breeders are breeding dogs/cats for financial gain. Most charge thousands of dollars for animals inadequately bred. Improperly bred animals create expensive medical problems. There are wonderful breeders working to maintain a standard and preserve some breeds, however these breeders make up only a small percentage. Most animals are born selfishly to meet humans financial needs. When you adopt a shelter pet, there is no financial gain, the gain is pure reward for saving an animals life. The love and gratitude a rescued pet provides you and your family is priceless. Adoption is a win win situation for you and your pet.
