I have mixed feelings about this. Many rescue dogs have their problems and need an experienced owner, or at least someone ambitious and willing to spend a lot of time on them. Ads like this encourage impulse decisions, especially if you have kids deciding that they want that cute puppy. I worry that shelter is going to get a lot of returns once people realize just how much work it is to raise a dog. I hope they screen their buyers properly to make sure they know what they are getting into and that they get a dog suitable for their needs, not just the one that looks cute.
