Thank's @bozz , there aren't that many homeless dog's but of course they are. It is something we have thought about to get a dog out of the shelter but our first dog (Bo) was one too, besides the troubles we had with him in the beginning we made the decision to go for a pup because of the fact we want Sam to raise the dog :) And he can't wait to start :)
But finally the Dutch government is trying to get a grip on the dog/animal breeders... and they should....
Yeah, it can be really messy. We have way too many over here so it is a sad reality. Our dog was found with her sister and brother in a milk crate in a ditch when they were just puppies. She definitely still carries some emotional baggage from all of that, but we love her and she has a happy loving home now.
