Nope, but I will expand....
There are those of us that are exhibitor/breeders. Yes, we breed but, for ourselves. In search of our next Champion to add to our breeding program. However, this only happens at the most 1 or 2 times a year. We plan these breedings very carefully and before these breedings take place homes have already been approved of for those puppies we don't keep. With average litters being from 1 - 3.....not very many puppies to place.
