True - and that is always the excuse of greeders.
"I do not feel part of the problem"
But you are part of the problem whether you feel it or not.
"mutts" - isn't that what a mixed breed "designer dog" is??? is it Ok for them to buy 2 mutts from you then?
Yes, there are adoption qualifications that hinder people from adopting - same as there are adoption qualifications for humans that hinder them from adopting. The qualifications are for a very good reason, the shelters and rescue groups do not want the dogs to end up back in rescue.

This is one of my pet peeves: If a buyer was not able to adopt from a rescue why would you sell to them? Obviously for the money. Such a poor excuse for breeding.
Raise the bar but then you will see fewer puppies.
