We have 2 standard poodles, both rescues. They do have health issues due to being purebreds, but are very smart and loving dogs. Marley, our black female, is about 9 years old (rescued at about 6 years old). Ziggy is a white male about 5-6 years old now, rescued from an overwhelmed "breeder" (puppy-mill with 50-60 breeding adults). He was in really bad shape when we got him 2 years ago, and went from 48lb to over 60lb under our care.
To gripe about a few hundred dollars in adoption fees is nothing compared to the companionship and unconditional love of these fantastic pets. Trust me, the adoption fee will be the LEAST you'll spend over the next decade with your pet. I write this after getting off the phone with our vet - 2 ultrasonic teeth cleanings, back/hip X-ray, 2 year supply Interceptor, 1 week antibiotics, heartworm exam.... and the grooming and bloodwork last week... probably on par with a mortgage payment (and not the subprime teaser rate payment either!).
