It is hard to watch your pets every minute and even the most responsible person can make a mistake, and then there are those who don't care and let their dog mate with anything.
So I understand why someone might think they will just be really careful, but can you really be with your dog every single second? |
I agree with the above poster.
Reputable breeders, by no means, want you to spay or neuter because they loose money if you don't. They only want to protect their breed, in which they have a passion for. If they sell you a quality dog, they would be happy to see you breed it to the right dog and improve their line.
