So sad... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I found out today that a breeder around here that I had considered buying a puppy from last year has an 8-year-old female that she's still breeding...on every heat.

The excuse was, "well she's never had a problem, and I figure she'll stop when she's ready."

This person has 7 breeds now (just recently added another), and LOTS of adults (I can't begin to guess).

Sad, so sad...

That's not just sad, but cruel.

I have no idea, but I'm sitting here wracked with guilt...thinking that maybe I should do something...but I don't think there IS much I can do...

I just keep thinking about that poor mommy...

She was also bragging that the mommy "just had a litter of six...see, there's nothing wrong with her."

God it makes me sick...

LOL.. When you said, "...around here..." I assumed around YT... I was actually searching!

Did she have most of her current breeds when you were looking a year ago? or did she only have a couple and have so far added a few in the last year?

Yeap. Some people just don't care. It's all about the almighty dollar (even if it means putting the puppy in the wrong hands)...

She had 5 I think when I looked...but I thought she may just have a small kennel. I know that's generally a red flag, but my mentor has 5 breeds and they're all very well taken care of...she just has a few of each. So I figured I'd just look...she had a male adult that I was interested in at the time. Needless to say, I left without the male...I was quite unimpressed...

Ugh

, that poor mama. She deserves a well earned life of leisure in the lap of luxury.......something she's obviously NOT going to get there......probably not even when the lady does stop breeding her.
Sad

, sad

This is very ridiculous to breed a 8 years old . Last night , at the hospital we had to do a c-section to an 11 years old Shih Tzu . Poor little girl , we are not sure she'll recover from it . She wasn't feeling good when I was ready to go home . I'll keep her in my prayers .
