This was communicated to me without checking any of my references or talking to me about my activity level or health. This is age discrimination. I decided to buy a dog (not a puppy) from a breeder. Although I may have paid more money I got a health guarantee on the dog and she didn't ask me my age. Although there are a lot of dogs who need to be rescued (and I have done it in the past) they charge quite a bit for them.
Rescues don’t exist to supply people with pets.
