Our most recent dog was feral, picked up as a puppy by a rescue in Georgia. He was bothering construction workers for food, which is a behavior that continues. He would probably be mad if he knew I make fun of him for being a chihuahua/Australian cattle dog mix. I resolved long ago that we would never have anything but a rescue. It's unfortunate that there are plenty of those.
My wife got connected with a beagle rescue. I help walk dogs on occasion. The number of dogs coming and going is amazing. And the reasons they are there can be pretty sad or infuriating.
