Of course, the definition of insanity is continuing to do the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result........

This is exactly why I take the time to respond. I give my point of view from the non breeder/shower/exhibitor side. In recent memory, we YTers have dissuaded two newer members from breeding and studding their dogs.
We gave the same info, in the same manner, but b/c of their personality/attitude, they listened and didn't call us bashers b/c we didn't give them the answer they initially thought they wanted to hear.
And myself, I was one of those who thought I would breed my dog b/c she is so cool and everyone loves her. Now, I am more educated about the subject. Sometimes people do listen and learn and change their minds. That in itself is worth getting the info out there. i don't care if people think I'm bashing.
