Re: Ethical question: Buying pets
I'm a bird person. I bought my African Grey from a reputable breeder in 1990. As far as cats and dogs go, it depends on what you want. You're not going to be able to adopt a Schutzhund-trained GSD, for example - that's big $$$. I think the ethical part is in knowing who you're buying from, should you decide to buy, rather than whether to buy or not.
