Awww, that's sweet. I almost adopted a Pit from the pound until I saw my baby Dobie, Stella. The pound was full of Pit Bulls, it is sad.

Both my dogs are pure breds, but both were "free" (actually my mini-pincher was free with papers but the standard was a rescue from the pound) I've had breeders comment on how beautiful my Dobie is and if I showed her. She has all the charateristics of a pure bred Pincher, a breed I fell in love with long ago.

So even if you are looking for a pure bred, check the local pound. Rescue pets seem more grateful and willing to please too!
