I would say yes. Millions of dogs are killed in shelters or pounds every year. Getting a dog from a shelter/pound saves a life. Many shelter dogs are healthy and friendly, and are just down on their luck. You can absolutely get a perfect pet from a shelter.

Even if you are looking for a specific breed of dog, there are many rescue groups throughout the country that are breed-specific. And breed-specific rescue groups often have dogs that are pure breds.
