Questionable Wagmor adoption process
1. Why aren't all adoption $$$$$$ the same? Some dog's medical care costs more than others, but that doesn't change the fee? But adoption fees are higher for purebreds? That sounds just like a pet store or breeder.
2. Why is the application process completely focused on PUPPIES? Don't you rescue adult dogs? If your answer is you use the word interchangeably, referring to all dogs as "puppies", then we have a follow up question...
3. Does that mean that you don't get to meet the dog before finalizing the adoption? Adopters don't meet adult dogs before payment is recieved?
4. If that is not the case, that means that you aren't using the word "puppy" interchangeably, IT MEANS YOU FOCUS ON RESCUING AND ADOPTING PRIMARILY PUPPIES!
5. Does Wagmor return the adoption fee if it's not the right match? NO
$850 x 4500 = $ 3,825,000
Plus donations of hundreds of thousands of dollars, transport vans, $150,000 for her store, +++++++++
Very high end, 2 million goes to medical care for the dogs.
