Its just my thoughts...I realize not everyone will agree.
There are people who deal with breeders all the time...in my opinion it just makes it easier for the breeder to continue breeding dogs that don't need to be bred. I will help a breeder who is giving up breeding but that is about as far as I will go. I don't want to be part of a problem. Not saying that that rescue is...just how I feel about things, right or wrong does not play into it. |
I understand your reasoning but these same dogs could be dumped in a shelter and end up being in rescue just the same. Or sold at a discount to losers who later dump them into shelters. The problem isn't just the breeders to be fair but the buyers who want the small females fresh out of the uterus. I see a lot more younger males being turned to the placement service than females. I think buyer philosophy needs to change as much as breeder philosophy does. Plus, these buyers have it wrong....everyone knows it's the yorkie males that are the lovers!
