For some reason I lost half of my reply. I have 2 additional points.
1- Quiddiot is fostered through a low kill shelter with no open door policy. AC is open door, and the shelter picks and chooses from there. Its an evil neccessity when you do 1500 adoptions a year and 6000 animals come up homless. I have no problem with this because everyone is upfront about it.
2- Gambit came from a strictly no-kill shelter. He was there 6 months. When I adopted him, he could not walk on a leash, had never worn a collar, had never felt grass since being brought in, and had spent 24 hours a day in a 10x10 run with 3 brothers. Being in a no- kill served no purpose to him, because he was a number not a dog. They also knowingly adopted out a hybrid animal to someone who was totally unprepared, just to get him moved. Its unfair to all involved
