Answer a Question with a Question...

No, but at different times, I have found a car, and a cat, online; Have you seen the websites that now show you all the cars on their lot, OR, all of the individual dogs and cats, at the animal rescue shelters?
 

Why not? Better than a blind date, don't you think?

(The car and the cat were both exactly as they were pictured and described online, unlike many online dates, I presume? )
 

I didn't date a car online, but DH online shopped for the car we bought last February. We knew exactly what we wanted and he hunted through the dealership inventories until one popped up at a price point we thought was reasonable.

Have you noticed that adopting a pet from a shelter is no longer a simple matter?

Recent years. Friends who've adopted pets from shelters in the past five years have gone through rigamaroles that were previously unheard of. Long questionnaires, home visits, etc. And it's no longer an inexpensive undertaking. It's sending people back to breeders.

Have you seen that, too?
 
Is that from all the common, local animal rescues, as well as the larger more well known ones?

Some screening seems reasonable and warranted, but is it done so much that it discourages good people from adopting?
 
Wouldn't you like to know why we are certain she is a mix... part Jack Russell Terrorist and part Criminally Conspiratorial Chihuahua?
 
As in humans, would you believe in our experience the energy level in dogs has more to do with age than with size?
 
Having had dogs in our homes for most of my 74 years, do you know we've had some extremely active large dogs and some really laid back... lazy... small dogs?
 
Did you know I've always owned large dogs and that they can be either laid back or extremely active? Does your small dog bark (or yap) alot?
 
That is also known as 'Little dick syndrome'. Do women with small breasts feel less female than a woman with large ones? I don't think so, so why do men.....?
 
If so, don't you find that generalizations regarding humans or dogs, rarely hold up, in reality, with specific individuals?
