chris E, to me a BYB and a hobby breeder are not the same as you referred to them. i consider myself a hobby breeder. unless I am not understanding, a BYB is one that just cranks puppies out and will sell to anyone with the money. A hobby breeder cares where the dogs go. I just got a very rude pm from a lady (fellow breeder) that I removed from my waiting list because of her EIGHT children. i had put her on it before i found out. That was my fault but I don't contact people or anything other than take names until I have puppies available then i do the weeding out and checking. I simply told her it is against my policy. she took issue with the fact that I removed her without asking her for references or anything. Frankly, once all those children came to light, I didn't need to ask her for references or anything else. Case in point, a BYB would have sold to her no matter what but i would rather have her very upset at me (she is and said some very rude things) that sell her my puppy.
