I, for one, am so grateful for this section and the experienced breeders who post here. I had experience before coming to YT, but I have learned many new things since I started reading these posts, and being brave enough to ask questions. When I got an answer, I really thought about what had been said. Ultimately, I have to go with my own sense of what is right -- but the experienced breeders gave me so much more information to use in making my decisions. I hope to continue to use this section to make me a better and more knowledgeable breeder.
One more thing. It is the experienced breeders who stay up all night with a whelping mom to assist where they can. They stay in touch with those in need of their help, they communicate their knowledge to help others, they talk by phone and PM, not just what you see posted here. They have saved countless puppies lives. I appreciate all they do.
