I know Nicki, you and others might be uncomfortable with early spay/neuter but with all of the other registries anymore and people willing to be so decpetive, it really is the only way to guarantee no future pet owner will ever breed one of your babies.
I'm not in any way saying this couple would breed, as I do believe you've checked them out and they are probably exactly who they say they are. It's just that people are so good at scamming. And, even breeders with your same requirements have been taken advantage of before.
Something for you to think about.  |
Thanks for the advice, but I just can't do it every time. Now, one of Brooke's puppies is going to stay with me until he's 6 months and get neutered before he goes to his new home. She has had a deposit on him since he was just a few days old. Of course that makes me feel better, he will have a wonderful home. I'm scared to death about getting Faith spayed, I waited 9 months to have her done and 10 months for Sophie because they're so small. I couldn't have the surgeries done before 6 months...I'm too paranoid.
I'm sure breeders do get scammed, and I think we try to prevent that as much as possible. I screen the homes the best I can. But anyways, I know they're not looking to breed...I have no idea how this thread got way off topic.
But anyways, I've actually been thinking on it a lot, and I may just hang onto Hailey for awhile to see how she grows. She could make it to 5 lbs, right? The growth chart isn't always accurate I know. Maybe I should just do that, since that's what I wanted in the first place. That means I'll be keeping 2 of Brooke's babies
, and I really shouldn't but.....I can't help it, the hardest part of breeding is having your babies leave to go to new homes...
