This is the rescue group that has the outrageous adoption fees for chi mixes. Also the group that doesn't want my help because I happen to be a breeder. Marsha

I am a foster for a rescue group and we are all overthe states. we charge a fee depending on the vettingthey had to have to save them from the puppy mills andbreeders. ours include the spay/nuture and shots utd.but we also work with the adoptive parents to make iteasier fro them to get the adoption fee up.--- [EMAIL PROTECTED], "marsha" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote:>> > I couldn't agree with you more. It hasgotten to the point that it is a lot cheaper to go buya full blooded registered dog of any breed than to tryto "rescue" a mixed breed! I do understand adoptionfees for several reasons, not the least of which is topay for the actual running of the shelter, but if mostof these shelters truly are "non-profit" then I'm thequeen of England!! Which is why myself and severalothers have started the yahoo group rescueachi to tryto place chis in homes without these extraordinary cost.However, now that I am setting here with an adorablechi/jrt mix, seems no one wants him!!! So looks like Iam gonna end up having to turn him over to one of thoserescue groups that will charge someone an arm and a legto love him!> Marsha> > ----- Original Message ----- >From: Cindy Sparks > To: [email protected] > ;Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2007 4:01 PM> Subject: Re:[Chihuahuas] Re: How many dogs do you have?> > > Boysome of the rescues and shelters are so expensive Herein Colorado the shelters I know of range from around$50 to $400 to $500 in boulder and a couple of otherplaces. I know they need money to run the shelter butyou would think it would be better to adopt out at asmaller price and get the dog a home that charge somuch and have to destroy some. We have a chi rescue here that seems kind of expensive(to me) as well. Plus they insist on a home visit and Ijust dont like strangers at my house (my little phobia)LOLOL > > > > On 5/9/07, address2000 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote:> > > prego200276 wrote: > > I am new to chi's.

I wish I could come acrosssomeone like that.....my daughter still wants a chi,but even the rescue agencies online want$200.00-$300.00 for adoption fees....plus having totravel to pick them up. This is why I bought my Pennylocally.....had to pay the same amount as a rescue, butat least I didn't have to travel. She doesn't have themoney, since she is unable to work since a shoulderinjury last Nov, she goes in for surgery this Fri. ButI keep looking at the animal shelter listings, becausethey r usually less expensive......who knows, maybe I'll find herone.> > . ---------------------------------> Foodfight?
