I know many that attempted to do this with dogs that they've obtained from either the back door, or from anyone that would sell them on an open registration. Only to discover, after years of breeding that they have to scrap their program and start all over again. |
That is why I'm saying it's a lot more work for us. But we love the challenge of doing it. It doesn't mean that we just put two dogs together. We do have a goal in mind. But if we want to breed but can't buy quality stock we have to work harder.
Showing is not even an option for me, at this time, possibly never. It's not because I don't want to., Altholugh I don't think I would ever really enjoy it, I would make the effort, if it were an option.
