I certainly didn't say that all rescue dogs have problems.....Carrying Baggage certainly does not imply problems!. Everyone carrys baggage from their past, humans, dogs, cats.... but it doesn't mean we all have psychological problems!
I was speaking in more general terms about how some of the uneducated tom dick and harrys might view a rescue when weighing up a rescue as oppose to a cheap puppy from a puppy-farmer. Looking at it from their perspective, not ours. Yes, i know rescues can make fantastic loving pets, i would never contemplate otherwise, but to some people who are possibly ignorant and clueless on the matter, a cheap fluffy puppy from a puppy farm would make a better one....arrrg

I haven't been online much these past few days as I have been up to my eyes in it, it great to see some lively debate going on about this, it keeps it all in the fore front of people's minds.
There are some valid comments on both sides of the argument and I Love the 'Rescue dogs make great Gundogs' signature...BRILLIANT!
