I read each and every post on this thread and I am confused at how you can say that your question was not answered. Actually,it was addressed several times with pretty much the same answer. Here's what I gathered from the responses....it takes money,time, lots of love and work to raise a litter of puppies! It isn't cheap to breed and it is trying on the emotions as well....I cried when each of my 4 puppies left us.
I am sorry that you didn't feel like you got your answer, but I really think that everyone did try to explain their reasons.
