Response #2: "It's great that you are researching before you breed. You'll want to take a look at.........most breeders prefer their girls to be at least 5 lbs., due to the risks involved. I would suggest reading........it is also wise to find a mentor. Usually a person will need to research for many months (or years) before breeding......"

Both responses are honest, but only one will tend to initiate further conversation and education.

Instead of saying you idiot you shouldn't be allowed to have dogs let alone breed them.
