I won't breed her next heat obviously (never do twice in a row) so it might be her last litter anyway. I am seriously going to thing about fixing them both... I really don't want a bad reputation as a breeder 
It is a big decision...
Awwww you guys are not easy... But I do know you all have the same good intentions... breeding in respect of the breed.. |
I know we're tough, the breed deserves it. I've let several gals go to pet homes that I wish could have stayed and I know others who have done the same. I know a fellow exhibitor who purchased a pup unseen from a judge. That poor yorkie gal has the longest muzzle I've ever seen on a yorkie, no coat and not much in the way of leg either. Poor baby looks like a Doxie snuck in on her pedigree. My friend can't show her in conformation but is giving her a try in rally. I lost alot of respect for the man who sold her the dog, respect as both a breeder and a judge. If he thought this little gal was a good example of the breed I can honestly say that he has no eye for a dog. What you produce is reflection of you and you want to be able to be proud of it.
