For the record, I am glad that you are happy with your dog and so pleased with your experience. I'd much rather read that than to read someone's bad experience with a breeder any day. 
As far as people posting in an attempt to 'eliminate the competition,' I truly do not understand what would make you feel that is the case. Competition how? In the ring? Selling pups? Nancy doesn't breed. I'm not actively breeding right now and don't plan on it again any time soon. Mardelin only has like, 1 litter a year and then is stingy and keeps them all for herself. I am curious as to how you feel anyone is threatened by some kind of competition here.
I understand that you say the types of posts and opinions expressed here are the type that keep you from being a more active member on YT, and you certainly have a right to feel that way. However, these same types of discussions are why many members like YT and think of it as an informative site and hold value in the issues that many people with more experience with the breed bring to light for consideration and discussion. For every person who feels the way you do, there is another person who feels just the opposite.  |
I just read this post....I resemble the bolded out statement. I am not stingy, just a bit selective on where my pups go. As my vet tells people when he gives them my # "Good Luck; you'll have a better chance finding a cure for AIDS than getting a pup from her"
But as far as me being competition, I've never advertised my puppies on YT and never gone posting behind people who are looking for a pup. I've never PM'd anyone with information about my pups. Heck I never even share when my girls are expecting a litter or posted in the nursery; which is very telling to me what the person's motives are.
So many tricks to selling pups on YT. Oh! my girl is preggie; look at her belly shots and help me guess how many pups; oh my girl is in labor, oh look at pics of my pups. And then there is the welcome to YT....and the poster has their website in huge font size....
