So, there is a member here who is purporting to be a Show Breeder, however, on one of the breeder listing sites, I'm reading that this breeder states they 'breed some bitches who are out of standard', and breeds 5-10 litters a YEAR. It also appears that this member may be a member of the YTCA.
Does this seem off to only me? From what I've seen here at YT, the Exhibitors breed *maybe* 1 litter every 1-2 years, and only if there really is a need for it in their program.
What am I missing here? Or, is this someone who may be talking out of both sides of their mouth? Purporting one thing, while doing another... |
Not to offend YT, but how many Top Show breeders do we have here?
I know it is not usual for any breeder finishing 6 to 10 champions per year.(remember many co-own or sell to other show kennels) to have 4 to 6.
I do not recall YTCA limiting litter numbers. AKC does not...
I am not defending volumne breeding..but if a breeder like Durrers or NikNak, just to name two are producing champion after champion, I think how many litters they breed is their business. One litter every two years or 4 every year makes no one reputable and ethical.
