I am not understanding why you are being so hostile towards me...all I am trying to do is warn the unsuspecting buyers of puppy brokers & their connection to puppy mills.
Did you know that once the momma & daddy dogs of Korean puppy mills are no longer useful @ producing pups, they get sold to restaurants that serve dog meat? I am Korean & this horrifies me, it is hell on earth. Many younger generations & even older are trying to stop dog meat consumption in Korea. I learned all this from an animal advocate site called Kara in Korea.
If people buy these puppies from brokers that purchases these puppies from Korean puppy mills, you are supporting this ring of horror. All I ask is to spread the knowledge, to help someone else open their eyes. That is all.
IF Betty Pedram truly does not get her puppies from Korean puppy mills, then I am in the wrong & are spreading gossip & lies. But I believe that is not true...whoever she is getting these puppies from are only catering the market that demands it. Unfortunately, health takes a backseat & looks (& size) come foremost.
Lastly, wish I can blame my typo's on an ipad & auto coorect but I'm not an apple person. I don't mind if my typos or if my wording is wrong & is pointed out to me...I've been here in the States almost all my life & can't speak Korean fluently either loll. |
Thanks Jenny, I apologize for being so hostile. I guess we got off on the wrong foot and I played a big role in that. My apologies. I was just trying to let everyone know that my experience was a positive one and that I got a remarkable dog.
It would seem from the responses that people are not interested in that, but rather to bring to light the negatives. It also seems that I am the only person in the string that actually bought a dog from them, so as opinionated as everyone is, it would appear I am the only one with actual first hand knowledge and a dog to show for it....which again others have picked apart. Really the hair on his ears are too long? He's a great dog, he may not be what everyone else likes but he's perfect for me.
You are correct about people eating dog meat. Its a practise done all over the world. My extended family is Cambodian and yes they eat dog meat in Cambodia too. Its common place throughout Asia. As you know it's a different culture. They think of dogs like we think of chickens or fish, literally. I certainly don't agree with it, but its not my place to judge the 4.427 billion people that live in Asia. I would never do it, as a North American we are raised that dogs are pets not food.
Anyways, I apologize for my defensiveness. I'm happy with my pup, I did my research. I know where he came from. I even know about the vet in Korea that took care of him and gave him his shots. He's a perfectly healthy and happy pet. He was never intended to be a show dog, he's a pet and he's a great one.
