I totally agree and I knew you didn't mean that it would be okay for her to be bred. I just wanted to let the OP know what I had found when I did a little research on the subject. I am no good without my morning coffee and Wayne will tell you that I am not a good morning person until I have it. Men, what do they know? LOL!
