Good post Shell. I could have and should have responded nicer to the original 
post. I got upset that $$ seemed more important than a forever good home.

  Hi Donna,
    This is exactly the way I feel about mine ... I would divorce my dh before 
finding a home for my pooches if they had a "problem" or there were hard times 
... and I automatically assume everyone is the same, and it could never change 
for anyone - like my friend.  I never in a million years would have thought my 
friend would have rehomed my pooches sister, but here she is doing it ... I 
guess under enough stress people will do what they have to - she's doing what 
she has to do to just preserve herself and a home for herself and her two kids 
during her divorce and it doesn't include pets right now.  I haven't been able 
to say, "hey, one chi wouldn't kill you" - because I know she loves that dog 
more than anything in the world other than her kids - so I know it's killing 
her.  She's renting a "house" so I know she "could" take her chi - I don't get 
it and it's breaking my heart. 
     Anyway, we don't know what "things" that Lisa mentioned are that she's 
going through - maybe just as hairy as my friend.  She deserves the benefit of 
the doubt, and kindness, I'm sure it will be difficult to give her puppy up - I 
couldn't do it. 
     Also, there are people who just dump their chi at a rescue or shelter - 
she's doing the right thing and finding her baby a home.
     If it was me making an adoption fee, I'd decide on an amount and make it a 
donation to the local humane society to help homeless animals ... but I can't 
give a baby up so it wouldn't be me!  I would also need references, a home 
visit, their parent's names and addresses, a two week trial homing, and weekly 
visits for the next month - LOLOLOL!  We still visit our breeder though - it's 
their doggie "grandma" after all and they like to see the other chis there.
