What I do know is that there are 3 past-prime, previously used for breeding, female yorkies in a rescue I am affiliated with, and each of them were brought in by so called, "quality" breeders who could not sell them once their breeding time was at an end. When asked why they were being brought to the rescue, their answers were all the same. "I don't have room/time for my darling girl anymore, as I have a new female to breed, and this one is no longer in breeding age".

So I ask again, and no one seems to want to respond.

What do you think she is going to do with her darling , and I quote,
"She has been my best producing female " if she cannot sell her?

I can tell you; she will end up in a rescue like mine, and someone who is humane will take her home and take over the responsibility that was the original owners; the person who made money off her health and puppies.

I am in no way insinuating that this is how you behave with your animals, but clearly, it is the way a lot do. So, while most might not understand about breeding... believe me, I surely understand what it takes to clean up the mess that is left.

Great post. Thank you for offering another perspective on this problem.
