That's not said to insult, there are ignorant people everywhere as well as forum trolls, just as there are caring breeders and well intentioned posters that want to learn. |
Yes, I was speaking generally. I agree with you about breeding 3 pound females. In 2006, I bought a little girl, absolutely gorgeous, great pedigree. She grew to have a wonderful coat, perfect proportions and only more gorgeous. Let me tell you, I REALLY wanted to breed her but, by one year old, she had only reached 3 pounds. With MUCH regret, I had her spayed. She now fulfills her role as 'House Princess'. P.S. Last year I purchased a full brother of hers'.
