What could be a counter claim concerning the benefits of purchasing a pet from the pet from the pet store as opposed to the pound

In order to develop a counterclaim to the benefits, first we have to consider the benefits themselves, so that we know what we are arguing against.

Therefore, we have to establish what the benefits of purchasing a pet from a pet store as opposed to the pound are. One benefit could be the fact that a dog from a pound is more likely to have behavioural issues as opposed to a pet from a store. This becomes even more important when we think of the fact that we are more likely to find babies at the pet store, while most pounds only have adult pets.

A counterclaim to this idea would be that, although it is true that pets from a pound are more likely to be unfriendly, they are also more likely to have suffered abandonment and mistreatment in the past. Their behaviour is often a reaction to this. Therefore, they would particularly benefit from someone offering them a home.

claim 1: "our prayers have been rejected with disdain; and only tended to convince us, that nothing flatters vanity, or confirms obstinacy in kings more than repeated petitioning and nothing hath contributed more than that very measure to make the kings of europe absolute."

claim 2: "wherefore, since nothing but blows will do, for god’s sake, let us come to a final separation, and not leave the next generation to be cutting throats, under the violated unmeaning names of parent and child."
