Puppy Negotiation

Submitted by Katie on September 27, 2007 - 08:34.

I was with you up until the puppy negotiation part. At least you weren't suggesting to bargain with a pound or other way of holding animals until they have to kill them b/c there are too many. The person holding the dog already had to endure a lot of it - bathroom, walks, hair, dirt, scolding, etc. Normally they will get the shots, and if you're lucky, the dog will be spay by then. But come on. You're getting a dog. It's not a peach at the Farmers Market. And even those prices are always low. In order for the market people to show up there to sell you a cheap but juicy peach, they need a few more of your pennies. Otherwise, you're contributing to the oversaturated market of tasteless fruit from China to WallMart.
