I understand what you are saying about bad-mouthing breeders. I'm with Pat on this one. If a bitch is healthy, go ahead and breed her twice and then give her a break for a season. I do not agree with a breeder in my town that has bred one of her bitches for 7 years straight without ever giving her a break. She wanted to trade me for a female and I told her NO knowing what kind of life that my little one would have. |
