These are just amazing little dogs...there is just something so special about them. Those that show and breed are in love with this breed too. They show to prove they have excellent examples of the breed. They breed to improve the breed and to breed the best examples possible. Most breed to get that next show quality puppy. They strive to breed healthy, quality puppies for the show ring and to be placed into pet homes. They want to preserve this wonderful breed. I bet making money is the furthest thing from reputable show breeders' minds....they spend a lot more money than they make. It's about a passion and love for the breed - NOT making money |
Yep, That is what I was trying to say. And a lot of breeders on here must not be reputable because they are breeding to make some bucks. A lot of people are two-face and will appear like their babies are their world and that they are doing everything right. But then they are breeding low, low quality dogs to get money and then they may buy better quality just to be able to charge more.... I mean, why not just admit it.... 1st step is to admit it *insert 2 nods*...lol... I don't really care but I hate when people start acting like they don't make anything and if they do, they use it for only a future breeding or emergencies, when the case is that it help pay all their bills and the outfit they got one...lol.. I understand the first couple litters may help on some of the testing but what about the rest?
