There are many many unreputable breeders of purebreds as well. No one is being judgemental...just stating opinions. I feel this way about breeding because of all the dogs abandoned, beaten, neglected, and dieing in shelters everyday. Most people need to stop breeding and contributing to the pet population...there are too many dogs and not enough homes. |
It's never going to happen..people will continue to breed their mixes, because they have that option to do so, and there are a lot of people that continue to want them..I actually know quite a few people that don't want a purebred yorkie or a purebred maltese, they want the morkie..they have their rights to have what kind of breed they want..And, I am very happy to say, out of the 16 or so pups my sister had(the youngest being 5 now), they are all very healthy, all in their original homes, and none have LP, LS or anything else wrong with them..
