This thread brings up an important point; I see so many breeders here selling breeding dogs on open registration (with breeding rights). A breeder who sells on open registration must thoroughly know their lines, and that means breeding for YEARS and keeping in close contact with all the pet families. From what I understand, a breeder should not sell a dog with open fontal as a breeding dog, and it should be placed with a family that knows how to care for this condition. A breeder, who produced more than one dog with this condition, needs to reevaluate their breeding program. Renee, I thoroughly agree with you about doing your research, and that’s why I always recommend buying a dog that is 6 months or more of age from proven lines. |
