Little doggos ... doin me a heartmelt ... heckin cute
To those complaining that these are --horror upon horror-- NOT rescue pups, a couple of things. First, given the nature of the photoshoot I am fairly certain that these cuties come from a responsible breeder, so we are not talking promoting puppy mills or anything like that here. Second, the author is in Poland, please recognize the fact that different countries do things differently, and stop trying to shove your American/Americanized perspective down everybody else's throats,
They are in fact from responsible breeder, a member of FCI :) And the rest of story you can see in my comment above :)
Fact: there are too many homeless pets throughout the entire world. Obviously people who are in poverty are not going to be going to a breeder to pick out an animal. I would even venture to say they probably don't have any pets at all of they only live off $10 a day. You trying to bring up poverty while discussing this point is waaaay off base. If anything you have proven the point that those who do have a little extra money to spend on adding a pet to their home need to be aware that getting a shelter dog is the best answer all the way around. And spreading this awareness is key in solving the world's pet population problem. This is a globalized issue not an American issue.
http://www.naiaonline.org/articles/article/the-global-stray-dog-population-crisis-and-humane-relocation#sthash.Dlcl2mOs.dpbs. Alec, this is a wonderful article about the GLOBAL dog issue. This article has actual facts not assumptions. Contrary to what you say it seems as though many around the world, whether they are in impoverished areas or not are very aware of the problem and are trying to fix it.
Not denying the fact that there are too many homeless pets, but the pet overpopulation problem in the United States IS fundamentally different, in fact it is the only country where breeders ARE much of an issue (and yes, people living on $10.00 a day often do have pets). I think part of the problem in how my replies are coming across has to do with the fact that boredpanda only allows direct replies up to a very limited point, and after that they are organized by popularity. That makes following the thread a rather tricky proposition. After Caitlyn McCracken first reply I only wrote: 'The issue you have. After all, I am fairly certain that if you were to take a truly global survey you would find that this particular issue isn't even on most people's radar.' Rather than acknowledging that for most people pet overpopulation is not one of the world's most pressing concerns she went on to try to defend her use of most in her original statement. That's when I brought poverty into it.
and there you go again, Caitlyn McCracken, with the name calling. What are you? Five?
Also, the fact that you even assume that people in developing countries will go to a shelter to look for a pet reflects a certain disconnect with reality because in most of the world there are no shelters, and people adopt their dogs off the street. In fact I would go so far as to say that shelters contribute to the problem. There are plenty of places where the official policy is a form of catch, neuter and release, which is aimed at creating a stable, non-breeding population by relying on the concept of carrying capacity. If an area can sustain ten stray dogs, you have ten dogs, which people know and care for collectively, and that's about it. In the US they keep trying to foolishly get rid of those ten dogs without realizing that there will always be ten more to take their place, and it is that policy that leaves millions of needlessly euthanized dogs behind.
Just to reiterate, as the replies have gotten a little unwieldy : the post refers to a photoshoot that took place in Poland, and the puppies come from a responsible breeder, so no one is defending puppy mills, or anything like that here. Also, please keep in mind that it is only in the US that puppies and puppy mills are big business. That was precisely the point that was addressed by my original comment, that and the fact that I am fed up with the way some people (mostly Americans) keep trying to shove their values down other people's throats without realizing that their perspective has very little to do with what's going on in most of the world. Nyello's well meaning suggestion that people living below the poverty line in developing countries go to a shelter to get a pet fits well within that category. As for what followed, it is, as far as I'm concerned, a perfect illustration of what I was getting at.
How precious.
