Truth is when asked the questions, your mother did not want to answer them. That is a RED flag! Plain simple fact! With nothing to hide the questions should be answered! It doesn't matter what you say or how you defend her a buyer has the right to that info!! Just because you send $$ on a kennel DOES NOT MAKE YOU A GOOD BREEDER. What that tells me is that you must be doing a whole lot of breeding to pay for that kennel... again, we go back to mass production! And I guess you think that that makes you a good breeder??
As far as what my friend who did buy her dogs from your mother... 1 of her dogs has a liver shunt, he was born with it. She has said herself that she should have walked away when her questions weren't answered.
All of this is the truth and the readers can take whatever stock in it that they want. Neither you nor I can make anyone do something they don't want to do. If they are going to buy from your mom and they feel comfortable with that choice... then that's what they are going to do. I'm not trying to stop that. I just think that they should ask questions and get answers. If they don't get the answers and they are ok with that... so be it! And since you have "no idea" how often your mother breeds her dogs and at what age... I don't think this is an issue you should be addressing, your mother should! |
For the record I have never met Betty or her daughter however I have talked to them about purchasing a dog.
In your first post you stated that you were told that she breeds every heat.. now your saying she would not answer the question, you have managed to present yourself as being a liar.
Your avatar says you are from VA, but you have stated that is not where you were from when you went to look at the kennels. Why have you not answered who you are or when you were there? If the accusations are true you should have no problem with publically stating the complete set of facts. why should members believe anything you say if you won't even say who you are.
You have posted very few items on this forum except to bad mouth someone, which makes it appear that is the only reason you joined. Again making you appear untrustworthy.
Secondly you are right that if someone wants to know the answers to these questions she has a right to know. That stated a breeder does not have a responsibility to answer every question you ask just because you visit her kennel. Maybe she got the feeling when you visited (if you actually did) that your intentions were not true, in which case I would not have answered anything for you either.
If you are interested in purchasing a dog a relationship needs to made between the breeder and the buyer, at that point the breeder would be willing to answer any questions you have. Given that I have spoken to Betty before I can guarantee you she answered EVERY question I had, and I would buy a puppy from Betty in a heartbeat.
If "In my experience & my friend's that info was not given up." Then why did your friend buy two dogs from her?
Because her daughter has no idea how often her mother breeds her dogs and at what age does not mean anything, she is not in business with her. All it means is it is not something that have specifically discussed.
