I don’t like that like 75% of the dogs at my local shelter are pit bulls or pit bull mixes. They’re mostly fine dogs but I’d like a different kind of dog but I would feel bad buying from a breeder (and don’t want to spend four figures on some fancy dog).
Hypoallergenic dogs are a ridiculous racket. My mom is allergic, so when I was younger we had to get a poodle mix. Four figures, plus 5 if we bred her. Add on to it she's a breed (Labradoodle) with a sensitive stomach who racked up another good chunk in vet bills, and it would have been functionally unattainable for even a normal American family.

Purebred dogs are horrible in terms of animal rights.
