If you bought a baby before that age of 12-14 weeks, and you got it home and it was sick suddenly within a couple of days or weeks, HELLO!!! You operate on a "SLAM! BAM! THANK YOU, MA'AM!" mentality, with as little expenditure as possible...that is the only way you can clear a significant clear profit margin....and since you have very little invested in the creation of those babies and the care of them up to the date they are sold, you can entice tons of buyers with CHEAP PRICES!!! Get 'em in, get 'em out!!! THAT is how you do, when you are unethical, irresponsible, and are doing this strictly for the money....to hell with the puppies, to hell with the dams, and most of all, TO HELL WITH THE BUYERS!!! So, if YOU are a buyer out there, getting a baby younger than 12 weeks, you need to be made to understand exactly what that "breeder" thinks of YOU and the babies she panders. |
