Designer Dogs: An Expose by Madeline Bernstein

slow-paced

2.0

 The problem with this book, for me at least, is that there was nothing new in there. I think the same would be true of anyone involved in rescue. I knew about backyard breeders, puppy mills, idiots that flock to breeds because celebrities have them, lax USDA oversight and the totally insufficient animal protection laws in the country.

But if you want to learn more about those things, then this is a good book for you with plenty of examples. Bottom line, if you want a pet, adopt, don't shop.

This book has an important message that everyone who is interested in getting a dog needs to hear.
