Uh… But when you ask them outright what breed it is, how could they possibly know since they rescued it? If you hadn’t asked what breed it is, I seriously doubt they would have come up to you and said, “Hey! Guess what? I rescued this dog!”... Edit: Besides, rescuing an animal is something to be proud of, more so than what breed a dog actually is. I don’t think people are proud of rescuing animals (for the most part) simply so they can be like, “Look at me! I did a good thing!”. I think it’s more of the fact that it makes them feel good to know that they helped an animal.
