RESCUE DOGS
When selecting the breed that is most compatible
for your lifestyle and your situation
there are many factors to consider.
What kind of Temperament:
- Good with children
not snapping at teasing children
- Friendly towards strangers and outside family members
- Does not provoke bigger dogs
- Bark if unchecked
- Affectionate
- Obedient or strong willed
Qualities desired or unwanted:
• Non-shed
• Need to exercise
or do not need exercise
• Need to have jobs…herd, guard or hunt
• Grooming
• Likes cold (winter)
Health:
Line breeding
(breeding to a certain dog to keep the bloodline going)
Example: Elhew champion English Pointer.
The breeder would state 3rd generation from Elhew's
bloodline or that Elhew was this puppy Great Grandfather.
Hopefully Elhew doesn't have any faults (bad traits) to pass on.
Rescue dogs can carry diseases and or parasites
that we do NOT have immunity against
(to be able to resist infection, antibodies)
Inbreeding increases health risks.
It's why we are not suppose to marry our cousins.
Inbreeding (breeding related dogs)
Example: mother is bred with the son.
Mixed breeding or avoiding breeding to
closely related parents helps avoids health issues.
None of my breeding males are related to any of my breeding females. This is ONE of the reasons I do NOT
have countless health issues.
If you decide to purchase a mixed breed it is best
that both parents are purebred and registered.
Registration helps keeps breeders honest
about what they are truly breeding.
Ask to see the parents' registration paperwork.
The breeder should have the registration numbers
on the puppy's paperwork.
I usually use a registered purebred shih tzu
and registered purebred bichon
to produce shih tzu bichon mix, teddy Bears.
I can show a paper trail when a teddy bear
is crossed with a bichon or shih Tzu or teddy bear.
EXAMPLES:
Shihpoo (shih tzu poodle)
Father purebred Poodle and Mother purebred Shih Tzu with
papers proving it true. Ask to see the documents.
This insures that the parents were not chosen because they kind of look like a Shih Tzu and Poodle…so we’ll call the puppies shihpoos.
They maybe Lhaso Apso Poodle (small dog breeds) which can be fine but may be not good with children & strangers.
ALhaso Apsowas bred to be a guard dog
where the Shih Tzuwas bred to be the inside palace pet.
Rescue dogs most of the time do not have paperwork,
the vet will need to give his best guess of what the dog is
and how old it is.
The fact is that the rescue dog is breed type is unknown and cannot be proven.
Breeds are bred for the traits,
they are either bred into the breed or out of the breed.
One or both rescue dog parents may have
sneaky neighbor dog (usually unknown father) breeding in its background with characteristics you would prefer to avoid.
If one of the parents have shedding qualities your puppy may shed. Even if one parent has non shed qualities and most of the past litters have been non shed your puppy may.
Do you want to gamble?
There is NO guarantee that the puppy
will NOT have some quality you DON'T want.
If one of the parents has shedding,
not good with children
or other qualities you don't care for...
your puppy may have the unwanted quality.
I don't care to have a dog in my possession
that may bite my family or cause problems in other areas
that are important to me.
Examples:
Yorkie(yorkshire terrier)
Maltese(terrier)
Chihuahua mix
may not like children or anyone else but the owner.
Terriers are happier with one pet owners and
where they can claim everything as theirs.
Cocker Spaniel mix
may not tolerate teasing
(will bite to protect themselves) and prefers to hunt.
Jack Russel mix (jackapoo)
May shed and may not tolerate teasing
(will bite to protect themselves),
are aggressive towards other pets and
are very active dogs who need allot of exercise.
Lhasa Apso mix
may not like children or
tolerate teasing and prefers to guard.
Cavaliermix with non shed breed may shed
is a working breed that prefers to hunt
your neighborhood squirrels,
birds or other fun creatures.
Beagle mix with non shed breed
may shed and is a working breed that prefers to hunt
your neighborhood squirrels,
birds or other fun creatures.
Beagle have voices and like to use them.
Bichon, Shih Tzu - mixed or purebred
non shed, a lap dog breed that prefers to keep track of you
rather than hunt squirrels, birds or other creatures.
They were not bred for anything but being a lap dog.
They won't herd your children or over guard your property
but they will give you all their unconditional love.
They do not chase the mailman but instead think
everyone is their friend.
Rescue -
May have AGGRESSION issues -
may have bitten people before
May have BEHAVIORAL issues -
marking or going inside the house
destroying furniture or other items
May have HEALTH issues -
heart murmur, kidney or liver problems,
the list goes on
May not have been QUARANTINED long enough for
contagious diseases and parasites
may take up to 90 days or more to show up
No well-informed retail pet store
is going to sell dogs and cats
sourced from any so-called "rescue" or animal shelter
because they know the facts
that animals obtained from these unregulated sources impose a threat to the health and safety
of both people and other animals.
