To me this is never a solution and a breeder that does this is not a GOOD breeder and if you as a breeder condons this as a good practice are also not a GOOD breeder. Don't get into the business of breeding dogs if you can't stand the barking...... Breed cats...... or lizards but not dogs.
Would you do this to a baby that cried alot? Of course not........... |
I don't do it nor do I condone it BUT I can not tell anyone else what to do with their dogs and YOU do not know the situtation or have seen it done.
Of course I wouldn't do it to a child but animal control can't come get a child if they are crying too much nor can CPS but if you live in an apartment or even in a housing addition with nasty neighbors and get complaints on a barking dog YOU CAN have your dog taken away...those kinds of people do NOT regard animals the way they do humans of course. So until you are put into a situation you don't know what you'll do. So, it's either have animal control take your dog and assess fines ect....I'm just using this as an example.
You personally do not know me and I'm sure you haven't done your research regarding my practices to know if I'm a good or bad breeder so until you know for sure and first hand how I do things you just don't know whether I'm good or not. As I've said I don't do it but just because I know some that do doesn't make me think any less of them because I do know their situation AND YOU DO NOT!
