LOL. I think we have all been there too often. You really do get so mad at times it works on your mind and body and you do just have to shut the computer and go do something else for your own BP's sake and mental health. And standing in one of those greeders fabulous little hellholes all pink and frilly and cutesy and smelling of chemical baby powder - as they bring out those poor little frail things they have wittingly created - that will put you in a bad place. The little dog is excited, usually perky and so darn cute. But you see underneath that and see the frail and fragile parts and lack of structure and the freshly-cleaned but weepy eyes, sometimes the breathing a little congested, the beginnings of undershot jaw or snipey muzzle, shoulders set so poorly the dog can't jump w/o dislocating after a certain age if it lives that long, roached back and the patellae are frankly on the medial side of the leg. But they weigh less than a pound and won't be over 2 or 2 1/2 lbs. grown so all else is forgotten and the unknowing or uncaring buyer right behind you takes her home - a few in hopes of breeding her. It's an unending cycle.
