What besides breeders not selling to every tom dick or harry is also shelters not placing dogs with whom-ever. What we need is an educated and committe buying public who don't show up to adopt a dog when they are not prepared for the commitment of dog ownership/ That can only come with a continual education of the public and discerning dog placement from all sources that dogs come from!
