I would like to rescue a dog from the local pound if possible.
Almost all the dogs there are mixed breeds.

Actually I've seen stats that suggest otherwise. A surprisingly large number
of dogs in "pounds" are pure-bred.

Looking into a rescue for a dog is a good idea. We got our one baby from a
rescue and our other is purebred. The lab mix is as sweet as can be and we
helped the rescue out in taking her in.
