She had purchased a huge mobile home and stripped it all but the appliances and made a dog house out of it. She had two rows of wire crates. That is where a lot of her show dogs were. I saw yorkies and poodles in there. It was clean, no odor and the dogs looked well taken care of. The crates were the kind that has the wire bottom up off the floor. They all had water bottles. My baby was there when I got there to pick her up but she said she had only placed her there when we told her we were on our way because of her husband. She said he was really having a hard time letting go. But, you never know about what people are telling you. She was honest in that she told us she was 'culling" her female breeders and that she usually does this around five years old. My dog will be five in March. She sold three or four more females the same day I got mine. Whatever it was, I still think it is mean to raise a little dog then just get rid of it after all those years. Course I am not a breeder and i guess that is the way most of them do. My husband is a breeder and he does the same thing |
I assume she is "culling" her females are they are to old to breed at that age IMO and I am also guessing your little girl lived in that trailer whatever the breeder told you.
Actually this breeder is doing her breeding stock a favor by finding them new homes where they will be loved instead of living in a trailer. Their days of breeding are over and now they can rest and get individual attention.
