This is so heartbreaking to read. I can't understand how people can have a sweet animal in their home for years and merely think of them as a money making machine. Once they are no longer able to bring in the cash, they are discarded like yesterday's trash!! My Nikko is my baby, he is my best friend and a complete joy in my life. I would NEVER give him away because he could no longer provide a "service" for me. He pees all over my floors, has floppy ears, double canines, barks incessantly and chews my house inside out. He is far from the perfect dog but he is mine and I wouldn't trade him for anything. Granted I am not a breeder and I do not know alot about the subject but I am merely speaking from a dog lover's perspective. I think this practice is shameful and cruel.
