The guy did tell me they will not be counting older unspay females that are no longer being bred, nor will they count dogs/puppies over 6 month that are being shown or evaluated for show. They still need to work out all the details. I really don't feel like they are out to get show people or people that are breeding for the betterment of the breed rather they are trying to cut down on the people that are mass producing puppies and keeping them in crowded, unsanitary conditions.
I guess time will tell how this effects everyone but I just have a feeling it will not effect the small hobby breeder or the normal breeder/exhibitor. All I know it will not effect me so I am not worried about it. |
I know plenty that have and I'm not just talking yorkies...what about the larger breeds that have more than 4 or 5 in a litter....it's really gonna affect the normal exhibitor more than you think and it's sad but of course it won't affect me at all...
