I actully believe payments are an excelent option for some. If I was to breed I would take this into consideration for a variety of reasons such as for most people including myself 1200 dollars was a huge chuck of change to put up at one time. I actully waited 3 years for my tax return to finally do it. I would have loved the payment option that some might have, that way I could have had a baby sooner. And just because someone cant afford that amount up front should not be a factor if they will be good parents to the furbabies. I have in fact not only taken great care of my dog and feed her the right kinds of foods, I get all the vet care she needs. For exmample I cannot think of many people who would have spent 1500 dollars on an ally cat to give birth to her last kitten, I did, because I loved her, and to me it wasnt a question. Although I did here from my vet many would have just put her and the other kittens down, however I paid for an emergency c section on a Sunday morning (3am) plus paid for care of her babies for the first several hours while mom was in recovery. Now, I did have to make payments on that as well, but I made them and never questioned weather or not I should take her in. To say that because someone cant afford 1200-1500 up front for a pup means they wont spend the money on a vet, is in MHO discrimination. I know there are many like me, and would never put our babies in harms way, the problem is some breeders dont care they care about the money. If I knew someone would make a good mommy, and trust me I do interview before hand, I would make arragements for payment.
