I hope she's not discouraged from coming back.
Yorkiemom I can feel your passion! You're right, we never quit learning, but she needs to be here for one of her avenues for learning, not mad and click off. Don't get me wrong, I sometimes have to take a break from here, and you brave it out. There are many posts you answer that I just cannot face, and we all appreciate what you've done to help. But this lady didn't sound like the typical "My dog bred by accident 2 times.. 2 different days", now what do I do?
Taylor, are you a breeder? You were judging her. You jumped all over her about breeding, and didn't help answer her question at all. She already is a breeder, she was asking about losing a puppy.
Did you know that AKC actually prefers a building. Home breeders have a bigger chance of an oops breeding, or death from a dog fight while unattended. What do you think most "home" breeders do for containment? A "Yorkie Room" with cage after cage, and sometimes stacked cages. Now, how is that better than a building with no wire flooring, and access to outside? I've currently got 7 Yorkies fighting for my lap, and my bed was too full of Yorkies last night to sleep, but I also have a building for the safety of young babies and breeding containment, with access to outside, heat, A/C, toys, amazing flooring, beds, and lots of room, not wire crates of some home breeders. I have cameras on every one, so that I can see and hear what's going on at all times.
All you've ever seen is the videos of mills that use wire flooring, dirty, matted dogs, living in disgusting conditions. It is deplorable how they treat those precious babies! However.. not all buildings are like that.
ALL Breeders need containment of some sort, and it's not always that black and white. We all need to do our homework, but maybe not be so opinionated. |
