That is a tricky area...I am quite happy to place some puppies at 12/16 weeks..I do not want them S/N at that age, before adult teeth appear..and I do not agree all puppies should be kept to S/N time.
Show breeders get faults that are "in your face" at a young age"...I want them with the new owner before 6 months...
BUT I agree, there needs to be a way to limit random pet breeding in this country...one way is to give the breeder access to low cost S/N or no cost...that would stop any breeding of dogs placed after 6 mos...perhaps, a law coudl required a notery statement to accompany AKC regs that the dog is S/N before registration of a pet...
We have plenty of revenue in this country..we waste trillions...direct it to the right places...but again, it is my perfect world and what are the chances...we have children without health care, shleter and food...our animals are way down on the list...
