It was also about adopting or buying responsibly so again it opens the door to many things I hope that made sense...
I put an unethical byb in the same catagory as a puppymill with just as much less regard to health and the dogs. Same thing! Cruel is Cruel and cranking out puppies whether it be in a puppymill or someones backyard same thing...Large or small scale...

Wouldnt a responsible byb be considered a hobby breeder? I am confused about what some call bybs on here vs hobby breeders. What if someone is breeding dogs that have been health tested, but are above standard weight or not standard color? Is that a BYB? At some point it has to come down to a matter of opinion.
