Sorry, but ALL breeders do it for CASH. Your arguments are invalid. |
I know plenty of breeders who have given away breeding dogs to people they thought had the right character to be a breeder. I also know of some who have quoted outrageous prices to people because they know they didn't have the qualities it took to be a good breeder. So I guess your argument is invalid. The main thing people need to remember is a good breeder takes every step they can to ensure that their dogs don't end up at the pound, and the Humane Society verifies this. Mix breed breeders have no control over their dogs once they’ve left the premises; every mixed breed dog is a POTENTIAL breeder. Who knows, next we’ll probably have a opps pregnancy and someone very proud. I don’t respect any breeder who sells breeding rights to everyone.
