A bit off track but, we as breeders do more when we breed dogs than most people do before they decide to have a family.....
But, reputable breeders aren't afraid of resonable fees, the one of imposing a fee if your dog ends up in the shelter, is not far fetched. |
Thank you for that! That is what I am trying to say. The fines and regulations do sound like a good start, but it is so much deeper than that. Really, registeries are not going to want to lose out on their dropped numbers? Lets make them accountable for the number of dogs they allow to be registered. Now, you and I know that a mixed breed dog's papers are not worth nothing, but mills use that as a selling point. Lets limit the number of different breed a mill is allowed to have at any given time......
