This is one of the reasons I get upset about people breeding indiscriminately. Good breeders seem to be cutting back but the byb's are forging ahead, try to earn a little extra spending cash. I wish all breeders would feel responsible for the future lives of every pup they produce, and every pup, their pups produce, for it just seems that most byb's encourage other byb's to breed. I believe that unless you really love the breed, and really have something to offer the breed, you should not be breeding. |
Everyone has stretched a bit...we have had to...but, there is a time that we have to say no.
Yes, they do keep pumping them out...just ludicrous. I honestly think some are probably breeding more and selling for less. The good breeders already know that people cannot afford now, so they cut back. The others...well hey...just drop the prices and breed more. That is what I am thinking. Of course it is just my little opinion.
Whatever it is...it is just beyond disgusting any more.
The gal who is taking the one that I am getting tomorrow is also taking a little female from a shelter in Houston...and there is another one in a shelter here closer to me.
I just got that email tonight. I seriously don't know what is going to happen here in TX...it just seems to get worse each day.
