I think it's very hard to develop an eye if you don't show, and you must remember a good breeders goal is also to preserve and improve the breed. |
This is really the main point of good breeders continuing to breed despite the overload I think. Imagine if they just stopped and left all the "pet supply" (I know that sounds crud, but can't think of another way to say it... please take it as I mean it and not how it sounds) to the mills and BYB because there were too many pups... the breed would be unrecognizable after a short time

The reputable breeders producing 24 puppies or whatever in whatever time isn't the problem, it is those that don't give a flying flip about anything except the money that's the problem!
