Im a stay at home mother of two, and we have income coming into the house weekly, and its hard to make ends meet sometimes. So yes the main reason we purchased "MAX" Was to breed him and see if we could get extra money. As we are living in NYS and we are in a severe depression now, and money is hard to come by right now. If i can at least make 500 for max, then i would be happy, and then get him neutered. Im not the type of person to just keep breeding and breeding him. Ive done some research, and the main reason i came to this site was to further my research. So for the people that are being harsh, then I advise you to see how low-income people survive, and understand that money is tight to come by, and we need everybit that comes even if that means breeding him out to a poodle. |
I spent 1200 on a good well bred excellent pedigree male ,Well he got to big to use as a stud so he was neuterd. 1200 out and a vet visit for neutering.Now he is a pet
Then had to look forever to find another one that would be the same qualitiy I wanted and spent a ton of money on that one.NOW i have a great breeder to use with my females.We cannot just buy anything that is cheap to breed with because we are low income to make money.
We are low income also 4 kids at home one in college and qualify for everything that is available free school meals etcc.
I have saved and saved to do this it was just not a oh I am going to buy a yorkie,the cheapest I can find and then use them to try and make money.
There is other ways to make money. I am a stay at home mom also but run a day care and have had other jobs working at night when my hubby gets home for extra income.
And if you are not going to keep using him ,you made your 500 back that he cost you, now you have a dog you have to pay for neutering and feed besides?? And future vet bills with shots and illnesses if they come up? Pets cost money also even when you are not using them for breeding
