but I am not talking about a pure bred breed, how would you being doing a disservice to the breed if you are not selling or breeding a purebred. So should the only people that be allowed to breed be show breeders?? I know in a perfect world that's what you would like, but is that realistic, plus how many people could afford to breed and loose money, probably only those that are extremely into showing as an expensive hobby and have money to loose.
oh and those genetic issues that pop up after a year or so, I am well aware of them since one of my show breeder dogs developed Lymphtansisa at about age three and died early at 8 years of age because of it. The OP should be made aware that even show breeders have pups with health issues, oh and bad teeth, inspite of yearly dentals and brushings most of my show breed offspring lost at least 9 teeth by the age of about 5. Buying from a show breeder helps your chances but by no means guarantees them.
