My Ruby has been gone now for 6 days. My 4 year old daughter wants a new dog like now. She is an only child and our Ruby was her companion and "dog sister". We were thinking about adopting a dog from a shelter instead of buying another pure bred dog. What is everyone's thoughts on this?

Also, Thanks for the support. I did have another bad night last night but this board is truly helping me. -Nicolle

Puppy_girl_snowballini,

Start with this link and go from there.

I promise, there are tons of places to get purebred papered dogs without supporting puppy mills or breeders that are just in it for the money.
