Sorry I am just trying to Understand. I have seen Show quality dogs go for Way more $ than Parties . |
Not, familiar with that practice. Since I show to obtain validation of my breeding stock. Therefore, Champion them, breed them and when they've reached the required age to stop breeding them, spay/neuter them and keep them. There are those show/exhibitors that operate on a larger scale than I do, that will spay/nueter and teeth clean and place them in homes for the price of those procedures. Studs of course are kept longer since they can be used for stud beyond the 5 or 6 years females are retired.
