You are right...some don't. And therein lies the problem. From what I have seen, there are many people who don't want questions asked in the non-featured for sale section. If all breeders WERE ethical and doing what is right, there wouldn't be a need for scrutiny and questions. Unfortunately that is not the case and YT is not immune to such instances.
I don't understand why a breeder would get upset because someone asked a question or was interested in more or was confused and asked for clarification...regardless to if that person was considering buying a pup or not. Unless they have something to hide or feel guilty about what they are doing for some reason.
What if someone the likes of Jeff Dane with a similar practice came and posted for sale? Should everyone just sit back and leave it up to him to tell and answer only what he wants to? What about a broker or a miller? What kind of information would THEY be willing to divulge. There are many people
who come here looking for a 1st time pet and don't know what to look for and the warning signs. I can only speak for myself, but I think it would be awful to sit back knowing there is a details that the person selling left out that would put a completely different spin on things. I would feel bad if they got the wool pulled over there eyes because the people did catch these things couldn't point them out.
