Where did you get your dog from?
not a judgment poll, just curious. if from a shleter or rescue org, what age was he/she when you adopted?
i have a 6 yr old lab. he was orginally my sister and BIL's (from a breeder). i "adopted" him in november.

Katie is from a breeder, Annie is from a shelter.

Re: Where did you get your dog from?
Got Barney from NSAL in 2005, he was a almost 5 mos. old.
The dog I lost in December to cancer I had for almost 11 years, he was from a small shelter save a stray in Upstate NY, got him at 6 weeks ( too young to be away from mom)..but I was 19 and didnt have a clue...I hope the shelter has changed that policy by now.

Re: Where did you get your dog from?
We got Luna from the Baltimore animal shelter. She was 12 weeks old and as soon as I saw her (she was in a pen with one of the kennel workers) our eyes locked and my heart melted. I knew immediatelt we were going to take her home.
As skittish as she is when in new situations- she is a complete love.... Image Attachment(s):

Re: Where did you get your dog from?
DH had fish in college (in Albany) and the lady working in his pet store said she didn't know what to do- her unspayed dog just had 13 puppies... So, he took one (decided he was ready for dog) and that's how he got Casey- Casey spent her first year of life in a frat house! Lots of love and attention but lots of beer bottles on the floor.
Tally we got from a shelter last fall.

Re: Where did you get your dog from?
I got Hershey from a co-worker at about a year old - they had adopted her as a puppy from NSAL.
DH got Bailey as a puppy from his GF at the time as a gift - she got him from Yuppy Puppy.
We adopted Max from the Little Shelter when he was 9 years old.

Re: Where did you get your dog from?
Fascinus was a private rescue - he was 24 weeks old. Foxy was rescued from the local municipal shelter, she has 24 hours until she was to be euthanized - she was approximately 18 months Bruno was rescued from Bobbi & the Strays in Queens. He was 12 weeks old.
Pyxie was from a very reputable breeder that I took several months to research. - she was 22 weeks when I took her home. Loki unfortunately was from a BYB. DH did not know any better when he bought him for me He was only 8 weeks when we took him home. The breeder LIED & told DH he was 16 weeks. He was very ill for the first 4 months we had him.

Re: Where did you get your dog from?
We adopted Gizmo from a relative of my aunt's friend. Their shih-tzu got knocked up and had puppies... we were kids (I was 11 years old) and were asking our parents for a dog for years! My parents didn't really like dogs, but had seen Gizmos mom a few times and liked her, so they took one of the puppies for us. He started off as the family pet but now he is MINE!

Re: Where did you get your dog from?
Our first lab was from a breeder in Michigan (Windfall Labradors).
Our second lab was found through the Long Island Labrador Retriever Rescue, Inc.. We were told about a big, black male at the Wantagh Animal Shelter...the rest is history. (Best $40 we ever spent! )
