Question

Case Study #2 Recently, more people have been opting to stop purchasing dogs from breeders and instead look into the option of adopting. Animal shelters and rescue groups are brimming with happy, healthy pets just waiting for someone to take them home. Many are already housetrained and used to living with families. Animals from puppy mills are housed in shockingly poor conditions with improper medical care and are often very sick and behaviorally troubled as a result. Even with all the benefits of adopting a dog, animal shelters are still constantly filled with animals looking for a great home. The most common breed of dog found at animal shelters is the pit bull terrier, a large breed dog characterized by its short hair and strong boxy build. While their temperament is typically kind and loyal especially when time and training are invested, with overbreeding and the rise of dog fighting, these "bully" breeds, with their immense strength, get a bad reputation and thus make them very difficult as adoption candidates. In addition, insurance companies and apartment complex regulations make it difficult or impossible for these dogs to live with certain families.
