What about the breeders who keep their dogs inside? Before I came to YT I never knew there was soooo very much to different types of breeders. Also, how can someone have so many dogs they don't know who the parent's really are? Am I just a flake? Should I already know all these things?? |
Kim, Pretty much anyone can be a breeder. Some "breeders" must be registered w/ the USDA if they have a certain number of dogs (usually a pretty high number). If you're USDA registered, you don't HAVE to keep your dogs outside (though many do) -- you have to keep your breeding dogs OUTSIDE of your home, but that could very well be in a separate kennel or something or in a "guest house".
