I am regulerly asked if I plan to breed Alfie and Rosie when she's old enough, I also get shocked looks when I reply he's neutured and I wouldn't consider it as she's so much smaller than Alfie. I remember years ago I had a min-poodle who I needed to rehome as he wasn't getting all the one-on-one attention he deserved with the yorkies around. A man came to the door enquiring about him, by them he'd been promised to my future sister in-law whom he absolutly adored, but this man insisted he wanted him and intended to have him until told he was neutured, then he just turned and left. Knowing what I know now its a good chance he was a BYB or maybe a puppyfarmer looking for new breeding stock. At least I know he ended up with some-one I knew, I dred to think what would have happened to him in the hands of this man. |
