I disagree. If they are putting their dogs at risk, then they should be told. Because obviously, they didn't realize that or they'd have never done it, right? If not for their own benefit, then for the benefit of anyone else who may be reading and getting information from the thread. By not speaking up for the best interests of the dog, the message being sent is, "hey I can do whatever I want, breed with no idea what I'm doing, and these people will hold my hand and guide me through it no matter what."
I hope that those kind of breeders DO read the strong responses and think twice before posting. Or even better yet, that it comes across so strongly that they think twice before breeding their dog without proper preparation and breeding education.
