I have kept updated with every breeder/pre owner I got my babies from.
the world has gone crazy if you ask me. everyone breeding dogs trying to make money off them. its sad and makes me ill to think about it. what about the poor dogs. |
The point I was trying to make is that if you are going to support a breeder you should find one with the highest standards possible, one that you
know isn't adding to the over population of dogs. I wouldn't feel right about owning a purebred if I hadn't done this. If one of her dogs slips through the cracks, and she dies, and it ends up in a rescue, at least it will probably be beautiful, and healthy too, which makes it much easier to adopt.
Wasn't sure what you meant by "everyone breeding dogs trying to make money off them." Do you mean that you think everyone who's breeding is trying to make money off their dogs, or were you saying "there are so many breeders breeding dogs trying to make money off them?"
