Those who can be considered REPUTABLE and ETHICAL breeders start by being mentored, learning and researching the breed and it's standard, getting involved and first hand experience BEFORE they ever breed their own first litter. Then there are those who breed without any REAL experience or clue what they are doing who figure they'll just learn as they go and try, poorly, to justify it by claiming that "everyone started somewhere." |
excellent post. I hate seeing people come here AFTER they have bred their dog and then decide to seek advice.
