Yes. I would. We have- many times! lol

I would do it as a pet owner or breeder. I don't think there is a difference.

I would spend more on a dog than I would on a snake, if money was tight. I'd sell my soul to save my dog if he had a chance at quality time and life. Basically, I'd go without food for myself if I had to, for my dog (and I have in the past, thankfully those days are long gone and over)- but he's one very special critter!

My animals' values to me are not in their price tags- I'm a bleeding heart!
