Default Talking sense into hubby

Please guys, help me out here! I just got Tobey 3 days ago and he was taken away from momma way too early. The vet says he's really healthy and all is well there so far.

My problem is this..... I am having problems with the breeder, who is now saying that the parents' papers were lost, etc. etc...... and that she bought the parents off of someone else and can't remember what their registered names are...blah, blah, blah. Whatever!!! I don't really care because I bought Tobey to be my baby and a member of this family. Everyone, including the vet, who has seen him says he is definitely a purebred, but we all know that I'll probably never know for sure. Hopefully he'll grow to be the gorgeous little yorkie-bug of my dreams, but he's too young now to guess what he will look like. The parents definitely looked purebred to me, but I don't trust this woman now, so..... But now my husband, who is not much of a dog person and just humors me, has decided that I don't need to get Tobey nuetered........ he wants to stud him out! LOL I tried to explain to him that noone is going to pay to breed their dog to an unregistered little boy. So his next idea was for us to buy a female and breed them ourselves.

I know people around here would buy the pups just for pets, but that is so irresponsible, in my opinion! I mean, if Tobey IS purebred, I have no way of knowing what his lineage is..... what if I breed him to a relative? (Well, hubby is from WVA so he gets those jokes all of the time...lol) I'm not saying I would never in my life consider breeding dogs (never say never), I just don't think breeding this particular dog would be honorable.

So, all you breeders out there, please give your opinion....... I'll definitely print this out and leave it laying somewhere inconspicuous..... like on top of his razor! LOL

Thanks!
