They would not be called a reputable breeder from my point of view. I will not call her a bad breeder because I do not know her and her practices. There are many BYB whose house are clean and they love there little furballs. But that does not make them a reputable breeder. The only thing I did not like about her website is she mentions t-cups. And she breeds for smaller puppies not for the betterment of the breed.
Is she a reputable breeder? My opinion is no.
Is she a bad/good breeder? I don't know her so I have no say in that.
I would like for her to remove the t-cup add or atleast have a webpage informing people there is no such thing as t-cups. T-cups is a word use for advertising and is frown upon because many bad breeders use that term just to sell puppies.
Breeding is not just about caring for dogs and loving them. Is about doing research and knowing as much as you can about them. So no you don't need money to be a reputable breeder but you do need time to learn so much.
I hope I didn't come out sounding mean. But it's my opinion on this subject. I think it's great for people to want to be breeders but I also hate to see many beautiful dogs in the shelter just because they didn't come out t-cups. |
