Max is totally worth the money I paid for him. I will love him unconditinally no matter if he breeds or not. Breeding is STILL UP IN THE AIR, If I dont find a female that he can breed he is getting fixed, and will be just a wonderful pet. Adventually when i get my own place, I will go into breeding, dont care what people have to say or not. Yes I want to make extra money.. Idont see that as a problem... |
No I'm not rich, I'm a full time student and work part time, have a mortgage to pay, 2 furbabies to take care of, besides all my other bills and expenses. Trust me, I could really use the extra money too, but I would never jeopardize my dogs to do so. Would you make a young child go and get a job because money is tight (oh we have an extra person in our house, lets have them get some money)? I would hope not! Also, breeding changes their personality, he may no longer be the wonderful pet that he is now. What are you going to do when he starts marking everywhere and has other behavioral changes? Guess where that extra money is going to go too? Also, what about the expenses to prepare him to breed, such as testing and everything. I'm not a breeder, but from what I understand is that breeders rarely make money, and when they do, it usually goes back into their program for another litter. Also, wouldn't you only be getting a stud fee, or pick of the litter? You wouldn't be selling the puppies, the owner of the bitch would be.
There are tons of other ways to make extra money, I just hate when people use their poor defenseless pet to do so.
Sorry if my post comes off as rude, I'm not trying to be, I just think that wanting to make money is the wrong reason to want to get into breeding, there are so many other things that come with breeding besides $$. I am glad your doing your research though and not like some who think it's simple, from reading on here you can tell it's anything but!
