Why can't we turn this around and ask the VP elect to now donate the price he paid for that puppy to Rescue? This would give HIM good PR as well as Rescue! The pup has already been purchased....lets hope that its temperament is solid as it is unclear as to who will have responsibility for it once it hits the VP's residence. JMHO.... Dawn ************************************************************************************* Biden is a human being FIRST and VP-elect second. It seems that nothing the guy does is right. Should WE give the money to rescue every time WE buy a dog? I think not. I hope his pup has good health and outstanding temperament. THAT will be good PR for US, as members of the GSDCA.
