And if she has sold over 25 dogs on here and none of them are defending her, isn't is also true that if she were doing such a bad job, wouldn't there be more people willing to post their bad experiences? Maybe most people are silent as they are afraid they will be attacked themselves. Personally I don't know Dee, never spoken to her and I don't think I've even ever PM'd her. I just think there are always 2 sides to every story and Dee did offer to refund her, I'm not sure what else anyone expects? Is it not possible that she just made a mistake? Aren't we all human? Or has no one else here ever made any mistakes.....

Hardly a rich man's salary. But, if one is breeding it isn't about supplementing ones salary, every penny should be going back into the dogs.
No, need to duck. But, think of it another way, the possibility exists that other's haven't stepped up to the plate, because they were sold breeding pups from this very same breeding (and the breeder validated using this sire several times). They may have bred those dogs and stepping up to the plate may cause them issues with their breeding programs.
But, as Blueskies have surfaced; breeding 10 month females...using a sire to that produced 40 dogs.......in 4 years that's alot of dogs, not to mention litters produced by other sires. I've been breeding a lot longer than this breeder and haven't produced no where near 40 dogs. It took my mentor over 40 years to produce a 100 Champions....40 is 60 shy in just 4 or 5 years.
