Because there is a difference in someone wanting to break into the breeding world and doing it responsibly versus someone who comes on and posts that her puppies are dying and didn't have the money to take them to the vet when just a few months before she already sold puppies from this same momma who had been bred on her first heat at 10 months old.
I don't breed, but I'm all about educating new breeders and encouraging them to do it properly, as there IS a way to do it properly. I've been involved with rescue and there are too many stories of pups that come from situations like this.
The "bashing" comes from the breeder's irresponsibility. If you think it's just opinion on her situation, go search for her previous posts.
