Nah you're gonna be supporting a creature for 10 years plus, get what you want. It's no one else's business. Adopted dogs aren't automatically more deserving of a home than pure bred bought dogs. I've done both and each has pros/cons.

You don't know what you're getting if you get an adopted dog a lot of the time. It can be unpredictable. It still costs a decent amount of money to adopt from a good shelter.

Whereas, if you buy a breed you generally know what its personality is going to be and what health problems it'll encounter. You just have to make sure it's from a legit breeder.
