Every dog deserves a good home and love no matter if it's mixed or pure bred.

I just have a hard time with someone who mix dogs.
I feel they should have a purpose in mind when doing so.
Like trying to establish a new breed.
Sadly, Most are not and are just breeding for Big Bucks.

In my area this trend is out of control.
Why?
Those who breed this way are not so much into the big bucks
but more out to make a fast quick buck.
The breeding dogs may or may not be pure bred, have no papers,
are not health screened, sold to the first person who shows up with cash in hand and most are shoved out the door at 5-6 weeks.
Before they even have their first puppy shots.

Then I see people who are upset because they take the pup home it’s sick and most time it dies.

I’ve seen people buy one and turn around and get rid of it because the cuteness wore off, it grew bigger then what they want, the dog has a health or aggression issue from being poorly mixed .

These dogs either get sold off to someone else to breed, with whatever the flavor of the month is…
Dumped in a shelters, at someone house, on the side of the road, or shot in the head .

This is why I feel it’s important not to support those who breed this way.
When the demand is gone for these mixes.
May be the shelters will be a little less crowed.

Yes, It’s anyone right to breed however they choose.
But, it doesn’t make it right for all the dogs left to suffer because it‘s someone’s RIGHT..


What a great reply, well said!
