I totally agree but how many times have you heard 'I've read all the books I can find." Yet there are still questions about the very basic stuff.
I also agree that seminars, mentors and a good vet are essential to being a good responsible breeder.
Yet everytime it is mentioned you always hear the same old tired line of "people being mean or people acting like they are the be all end all of breeding advice." And sadly it is the bitch and pups that suffer.
