I don't care if you show your dog or feed them top dog food..groom them daily or what you do..if your dogs spend their lives in an outside enclosure to me you are a glorified puppymill.. |
The great breeders of days gone by all had big unattached Kennels. Anne Rogers Clark, The Gordon Sisters (who are the matriarchs of the Yorkshire Terriers in the USA). How do you think they were able to breed as many Champions as they did. Granted they all had great Kennel Help and On-Call Vets and spent every waking hour with their dogs......Some of the greats of today have Kennels, although most of them are attached to their homes, and facilities are meticulous dogs are played with daily and trained.....play outside.
