I've been looking for a used dog online and came across this amazing organization that rescues strays off the horrible streets of Taiwan. For whatever reason they send them to Canada, we probably have easier importing laws. But they have these basenji/manchester terrier mixes that are 20-40lbs. There's one that looks like a miniature yellow lab at only 26lbs!

Every single one of them has a sad story of abuse/abandonment and it was an evening filled with tears when I was reading their histories
