Most show breeders believe that puppy placement is more important than money received. I don't think it's imperative for every breeder to show, but I believe that a good breeder should work closely with others to insure that their breeding dogs are great examples of the breed, for many people can't properly evaluate their own dogs. When we have a pet, we often overlook its flaws, and only see its beauty, and I believe that's the way it should be. This is a difference in philosophy and I accept their philosophy, obviously you don't. I truly believe there are breeders out there who's only goal is to better the breed, not to make money from their dogs. Most show breeders are lucky to break even. |
The reason that I used the Nazi analogy, it is one group of people telling another group of people that only WE are fit to do this. As the Nazis told the Jews that they were not fit to procreate, so does the YTCA tell us non show breeders that we are not fit to breed dogs, eventhough they know nothing about us, they lump us all into a sub standard category.
That is why I use the Nazi example.
