Why don't we all try to assume that everyone is trying to be nice and helpful by what they write and not rude? Only the poster truly knows their tone, and from what I've seen it often gets interpreted wrongly. If we all truly want to make this forum a positive place, let's all imagine a positive tone behind each post instead of just assuming it is negative. You know what they say about assuming  |
That is a fantastic idea. I believe it was you who stated that, "Most backyard breeders do not health screen." Just as you have challenged breeders in the past to talk about their health screening, I challenge you to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that this statement is true. Particularly when referring to YT breeders. From where you sit on the other side of that computer screen, how do you KNOW if someone is ethical or does proper health screening? Presenting opinion as fact is very damaging to a multitude of people and needs to be stopped. The Breeder's Forum of all places should be a place of FACT backed up by credible documentation. Unethical and unreputable is also a term that you use to describe unnamed YT breeders.... I would ask you to do your research on individuals, prepare your cases and then take the facts to the Breeder Review section, and do a proper Breeder Review that is fact rather than opinion.
