DomLee,
I don't know what her exact intentions are for wanting to breed, but my guess is she wants to do it for the money. She says she paid $2400 for her and has papers of the past 8 generations, which she assumes makes her good breeding quality.
I don't know if they are AKC papers because she's never mentioned AKC. I haven't really expressed my concerns about breeding because I don't want her to think I'm telling her what to do with her dog. I'm afraid she might get upset and take the dog somewhere else (since she cannot keep her at her house yet). That is why I am trying to find a way to show her that she shouldn't breed her without offending her. The owner's mom (who I work with) was dissapointed when the vet recommended she be spayed and I expressed my feelings about not spaying to her mom (higher risk of cancer). She seemed clueless about the risks of not spaying.
It's a sticky situation but I want what is best for the dog.
