Baron: Again, I didn't say all people make profits... I said a lot of people. I'm sure there are many breeders that breed once or twice a year for their selves and sell their puppies to a loving family and make nothing because they weren't trying to. I get that. But there's a reason why they are the #2 most popular. And I'm pretty sure not all of them is not trying to make a profit?... I know we are going to continue to disagree but again this is my opinion..... Yeah, and thanks for staying on topic...I'm sure I wasn't.  |
The question was asked and I replied, if you did not like the answer you did not have to read it. I'm sorry if it bothers you that costs can be explained to people that want to know. Yorkies being the #2 dogs wanted have nothing to do with breeders, but rather with them being seen with movie stars and other popular people, and their size. Some breeders and puppymillers have jumped on the band wagon and figured it was a way to make a profit, and don't worry about health, structure, personality or other desireable traits. Also, yorkies being the #2 most popular dog, really has nothing to do with the costs of the tests that reptuable breeders have done for the sake of the dogs. Every breed has some problems that good breeders will test for, besides the normal health tests. You just need to be vigilent when you are looking for a pet to take into your family.
