If you sell directly over the internet and do not meet the buyers in person AND not or, if you have OVER 4 breeding females, you will have to register as a breeder just like the commercial breeders who sell to pet stores have to register. Why do we demand that breeders who sell to pet stores have to be regulated, but not those who sell literally thousands of dogs over the internet need no regulation? For years Yorkietalk has been telling puppy buyers to not buy pets from pet stores, but those dogs actually have better breeding conditions than the dogs who are sold directly over the internet. You've seen the sites, Posh puppies and micro toy dogs, and nothing authorities can do to inspect any of the breeding conditions. I just can't understand why there is this double standard. I would prefer a person buying from a petstore than over the internet. At least they have a tiny idea of what they are getting and those breeding dogs are regulated.
