thats what it says on the site! |
Sorry but this is just cruel and inhumane. A good breeder would know when her bitch is welping (it doesn't happen in 2 minutes) and would have realized she needed to be rushed to a vet, especially when you are working with such a tiny breed.
I would also like to know how many dog breeds is she breeding.
I am sorry but your cousins pup might be cute, adorable etc but there are to many good breeders out there to even consider this breeder. She has a USDA kennel license so she can mass breed dogs. Many not all USDA breeders are breeding for petstores

. Your cousins dog could be cute but what about health issues, you can't see them.
How did your cousin buy this dog? Did she see the facilities?
I would also have to say, more than just this was going on for the USDA to investigate her kennels.
