And then when experienced breeders try to give them advice they don't want to listen and make it seem like the Exp. breeders are the bad guys. This is what makes it hard for the ones starting out that want to do this for the right reasons. They tend to forget about the dogs and only focus on what they want. Whether it's money or just because. Sad thing is the dog is the one to suffer especially when something goes wrong. |
Thanks for posting and sharing.
There is so many things to consider when breeding......genetics, reproduction, neonatal care, nutrition......I just cringe when someone says they want to breed cause their family wants one just like the one they plan to breed. This breed is so complex, with so many breeds behind it you never know what you'll get. I can only pray and hope that those that are planning to breed do so with open eyes, education, a knowledgable mentor and the best foundation their money can buy.
