Let me try to explain something, and try to not take it personally, hopefully you might learn something. If you are a breeder, or even a pet owner, you need to understand a dog's behavior. When they display aggressive tendencies, it's
not ok to give them a second chance. Sure you can keep them as a pet, but they must not be bred, and they must never be around vulnerable dogs or children. The dog owner is responsible for
EVERYTHING the dog does, it's
NEVER the dogs fault. They are animals, they don't know better, they can't pick up a book, or go online to learn something. While you can train a dog to be less aggressive, you still must never give the OPORTUNITY to make a mistake. So of course people are blaming you for for the death of the puppies, you say that you are an experienced breeder, but that usually means, that you have studied breeding and dog behavior, not that you've owned dogs that have gotten pregnant. You are not alone, most breeders don't bother studying up before breeding, but for dog lovers, it's very frustrating to read about stories such as yours. I really hope you will try to understand where we are all coming from, and consider hanging up your breeding hat, or actually start studying about breeding before you get a breeding pair.
