Her vagueness to you was nothing against you. But, more than likely was reluctant to tell you, because Animal Rights Activist are at times attempting to gain access to a breeders home.
If one is an exhibitor/breeder that has a great line of winning Champions, it can't be done with 2 or 3 dogs. To produce a great line, a minimum of 5 breeding girls is necessary. But, then it is dependent on what one's goals are. |
Could also have been that here in Palm Bay we are only allowed 4 dogs, and she may have had concerns about a stranger knowing she had more than 4 dogs - although she did say "too many".
She was a very nice lady, and her home was spotless. I believe she takes good care of her dogs. And she obviously loved the little female, as she decided at the last minute that she couldn't part with her. (I think the puppy was about 3 years old - I know, not really a puppy, but they are all puppies to me - just like I'm always 21
