Says you.




I never said peta created the breed standard, peta is against breeding, PERIOD. What they did was try to put breeders out of business by shaming them for breeding dogs while there are dogs around that do not have homes. They created a hierarchy amongst breeders by pitting them against each other by creating tossing in the terms: reputable breeders, backyard breeders, and coining the term Puppy mill. Their goal is to push the public to adopt spayed and neutered dogs from shelters that cannot reproduce to kill breeding by taking away potential buyers. Then they try to push mandatory spay and neutering laws and heavy breeding restrictions. If they get their way, dog breeds will eventually start to disappear because the price of a dog will skyrocket and dogs will become a luxury if they survive.
