What difference would it make to the secretary of the club whether someone that has offspring from one of her pups sells them or not? She would have no financial benefit, no moral obligation etc. Surely the reason she recommend her first off is because she knows the bloodlines inside out? |
It's obvious you weren't trying to start a debate. But, when you ask for advice, you're going to get all different kinds.
And when people don't all agree, they defend their reasoning. I think that's why a lot of posts end up in debates. It's all good so long as we're all civil and kind and realize that we are all entitled to our own opinions.
