<human>: Can you give me a shortened version of the text?

I currently have two dogs that I purchased in the past from reputable breeders. After watching countless depressing tv commercials with the Sara McLaughlin songs, I promised myself that if I were to add another canine into the family, that I'd adopt from a shelter. So I go onto petfinder.com and search for a dog in the local area. I find out that the adoption requirements for homeless dogs are ridiculous. No wonder the shelters are overrun with animals. 

The mandatory requirements include at least two personal references, a veterinarian recommendation, a home inspection (must own), an interview before the adoption, an interview/check-up six months after the adoption, an agreement to enroll the dog into training classes, a receipt for a prepaid neuter/spay procedure from a vet or clinic, a $400 fee, and they want to speak to my boss and verify my employment. Even after agreeing to their terms, I was rejected because I don't have a fenced in yard for my prospect indoor dog. Everyone is telling me to adopt, but I have been deemed an unfit parent for a homeless dog. What else am I supposed to do? I'm pretty sure I can buy an AKC registered dog or even one from a backyard breeder on craigslist with the $400.
<bot>: The requirements to adopt a dog are ridiculous, my hands are tied so i just want to buy from an AKC breeder.
