I would be a better breeder and I know I don't know anything about it. LOL
 If only we had YT before we laid down the $ to bring them home.  I like you am so in love with our pup that I wouldn't want her to be anywhere else than in our home, she's wonderful, but now that we know what breeding really means, I won't make the same mistake twice.  If not for the pup's sake, for our own.
 
 Love them as much as we can!!

  Same boat here- I'm sure Mine was from a byb. I too found YT too late to know where my baby was really coming from. All we can do is love our furkids, and support each other when they get health problems, and try to pass information along to others about these awful places.
