You know, not everyone in the world wants to be a breeder. Believe me, I really don't have that much patience for people who want to breed their darling PET
But I do realize that the ones that do, must have a little bit of "breeder blood" in them. I wanted to breed every animal I have ever had in my life, starting with my hamster!
The dog show world is quite foreign to most people and it's usually only after they get their first dog that they realize they could do better. I know a lot of breeders that started out with their first dog being not so good.
So nobody had the right to sit in judgment because they've been breeding for 25 years because they were once young and thought they knew it all too and what they didn't, they would learn.
It's not that I have any use for people who only strive to breed for pet quality because there really isn't much challenge or progression in that. Someone who has been breeding the same quality for years and years is not doing anything for the breed except for producing more puppies although I do not feel threatened by anyone who wants to breed Yorkies, I just don't feel like I have much in common with them.
So, even though people come on here with newbie ignorance and it can be tiresome you never know how deep into this sport some of these people might go. It's very easy to get bitten by the show bug.
