Wow. Ok.
I didn't ask if you'd read the whole thread, because it really seemed as if you hadn't. Your post seemed to ignore the fact that this person was given very good advice, and maybe some of it was on the "harsher" side, but would you rather we mollycoddle folks like this, when they come here looking for validation? What she did, allowing the puppy to die, was out of ignorance and being unprepared. So, are we just supposed to say, oh poor you, of course you should listen to someone that says to just let a puppy die
Oh, and of course you should breed her again, as soon as she's in heat again. Really?!?!
It's posts like YOURS that encourage this type of behavior. The OP is NOT THE ONLY ONE READING these posts. There are many others that never register, or log in, that may be thinking about breeding and BY GOD, I for one want to make sure that they all get the same message: Breeding DOES NOT happen by accident, it's carelessness. If you don't know what the heck you're doing, then do some more research and find a mentor FIRST. Heck, we could use more GOOD breeders that care about whatever breed they choose to breed, and that do their homework. I am one of those people that used to think that I wanted to breed Yorkies. I thought, "How hard could it be, the dogs have sex and the bitch does all the work, AND I'll be able to sell the puppies for lots of money"
Well, the more I read here about breeding and all it entails to do it RIGHT---the less inclined I was to breed. Anything, ever
It seems like you're always defending these people, and honestly, the DOGS are the ones that could use your help.
