Breeders already do so much for though i.e, dew claws, tail dockings, immunizations, vet checks, microchips, etc. there has to be an end to it somewhere. I do however agree though that the one way to ensure a limited reg dog doesnt have pups is to spay before hand or enforce breech of contract. |
True it must all end somewhere but people got into breeding somehow knowing the expenses that may occur. And i would just assume the best thing would be to have it done before hand, even if that means holding onto them a little while longer, but it can also be placed in the price. I like the breech of contract thing too but how legit is it? And how would you ever know that was your dog you sold? And yes we (people who have dogs who have had litters) have incurred a lot of expenses but do you really think people care how much we've spent on these things? NO. I see so many people and talk to a bunch of people who want a pure-bred, papered, cute little fuffy dog that has all vaccines, dew claws done, tails docked, S/N, potty trained with accessories for 50 bucks. People are greedy, face it, the world has gone down the drain
Oh and i might add, they say it was our fault to breed them and all the expenses were on us and that was our responsibility so why should they have to pay??
