All of these rules and regulations given out by the YTCA that supposedly qualify breeders on their list are unenforced. It even says in a disclaimer:
"the YTCA does not guarantee the health or services provided by any member and does not assume any liability regarding agreements provided by the consumer and the YTCA members listed within.

So ultimately, people have to do their due diligence and see for themselves what is going on with the breeders. |
You are seriously jaded with reputable breeders. Were you a bad breeder at one time or something? What's the issue? The best place to get a dog and have the best chance of it being healthy is a reputable breeder. Bad breeders are making genetic health issues rise, making dogs that don't even look close to the breed they are supposed to be and are filling the shelters. I will agrue this with you continuesly. I promised my dog I would fight to stop bad breeding and I sure won't stop now. It's unfair for dogs to suffer just because some people want some money in there pocket. These are living beings that have needs and feelings!
