I can compare one dog who was given up in such a way (and was the absolute best, loving pet) to a pure bred pup of the same breed. Raising from a pup and working through the adolescent stage is, in many cases, very trying.
The fact that you ask such a broad question with little to go on and like life as easy as possible makes me think you should think twice before making the commitment.

Well then you should tell that to my current puppy who is the happiest and most well trained puppy that EVER walked the planet. You DO NOT know me so DO NOT pretend that you do. The words you spoke were pure ignorance and I wonder if you are a fit dog owner yourself. I have had a new PUPPY (yes puppy) every 2 years for 24 years; so your comments are naive and unwarrented. All a dog needs is love and attention. It doesn't matter the size of the yard. And yes; when you buy an adult dog you are buying someone else's problems.
