If this hatred for breeders continue, there will be fewer purebred dogs to show and differentiate among the breeds. I recommend shelters all the time, when folks say my dogs are too expensive for them. I believe you get what you pay for. I speak with everyone of my buyers and many of the buyers from breeders who have quit. And lastly, why are we importing dogs from Korea and Mexico to fill shelters and rescues? Isn't that just as bad?? |
THAT boggles my mind. With all of the homeless pups in the US why we allow this is beyond my comprehension.
You know your friend Kiki Hamann was involved with a Korean mill and has some yorkies from there .. she came right out and said she was the spokesperson for them or something along that line. As you know, I have zero use for her and her nonsense anyway. Our rescue has been trying to place one of her ill bred pups for a while now....my understanding is that she was bred by Kiki and I was told that at least one of the parents was from that mill she was involved with. While you might say some of this is second hand, I do have a screenshot of her bragging about her involvement with them.
