I see nothing wrong with this, and that's why I link YTCA breeder referral list, as there is usually a breeder who can be reached locally. I really believe it's so important for a puppy buyer to approve the conditions in which the dogs are kept, and not take anyone's word for it. I know most good breeders don't believe that you should breed before you have homes for the offspring, but I understand that some pet breeders will breed as a way to suppliment their income, and while I don't recommend this, I always think it's better to support a breeder where you can be 100% positive that the dogs are being treated property. I'm glad you are a breeder who doesn't want her dogs shipped, and this SHOWS me that you love your dogs!
