The paroles have the job to rehabilitate one dog at a time. If they do a good job their parole is slightly shorther then it would be, and if they fail, and don't do a good job someone else is assigned the job, and the parole goes back to jail. It's amazing how hard they work, and how many of them go to good homes with no more problems. I guess I'm a little partial to pitbulls. I use to breed them for a living, but stopped when I saw the type of people that were coming to buy them. I usually sold them starting at 500, and people that look like they just came out of the sewer would offer me 50. I knew what they wanted the dogs for, and I wouldn't sell them. I did a through background check on the people, and had my pits tested well before they were breed, and did every other test that was out there to ensure I'd be breeding a good dog. I hope everyone doesn't get mad at me for my input, but I'm sharing my opinion. | You pretty much have backed up what i was saying as well. Reputable breeders take are with what they breed, who they sell to and make sure that their dogs are going on to a safe and loving home. I would not blame you one bit for decided to stop breeding when you saw the costumers that were inquiring about you pups. It was the responsible thing to do so that you did not enable this type of behaviors to continue at the expense of the offspring of your breeding program.
