ugh relly lol. i cant believe people - Page 1

Sasha is a 4 year old spayed female German Shepherd. She loves to go for walks. She does have AKC paperwork with her. Come see Sasha today and take home your new best friend.


this is in spokanimal she is a nice looking black and tan but honestly why would you give your dog to the shelter papers and all.....

Not uncommon, really. Our Humane Society loves it when people do that... gives them a reason to triple the price on their dogs. They'll charge $300+ for a papered dog... just because they can prove its a purebred.

And get this - they had a few months back, a Great Pyrenees/Saint Bernard mix... spayed, all that jazz, as all of their dogs are. They were charging $800 for her! I couldn't believe it.

Who knows what the situation was with owners, but at least they didn't leave her starving in the back yard or turned loose to get hit by a car. Having her registration will make it easier for an adopter to
go to working trials with her, like get a BH or do OB, Agility trials etc. with her if that is what they want to do.

I have done dog rescue for many years. Most imes when they include the papers with the dog they really have to part with the dog and are grasping at a hope that by including the papers with the dog there is a history and the ah factor to people who have never owned a registered dog so that the dog gets adopted quick and will be cherished. For some people who cannot buy a registered dog from a breeder to find one with papers in shelter would be a "thrill" and added atraction. They get altered before adoption so it has nothing to do with breeding.
