Joy! That is such a neat story. Why did she give him up as a stud and how old was he? I always wonder about this too because I have talked to brreders who have what they call their "house dogs" or their pets, and then the others they keep in a separate room, building or whatever. This is disturbing to me. I think it is the same whether they are show breeders or hobby breeders. Espeically the males seem to get neglected because they are afraid if they let them in the house they will mark. I don't know how prevalent this is, but I just don't know. |
