I do have 10 nope, 12 , I am bad at counting, but don't have litters all the time. We had 3 this year with 5, 2 and 2. The girls who produced this year are on break and we won't have pups again from the other girls 'til early next summer. Don't even come close to 30,000 gross, never mind net after expenses. Someday, maybe after I recover from some of the initial expenses and have a run of great luck,( Which would include things like no major vet bills, no dogs that you spent a lot for with high hopes for breeding and had to spay/neuter retire to pet homes when they don't work out..etc, etc. )I may be able to creep into the black on this hobby of mine. I think it would be great to make that and don't see how it would be wrong, just not sure if it's possible.
