Ah, so the truth comes out. This is exactly it. Many people say that, "I am not in it to make a profit", bull. I have nothing against that, just be honest about it. Just say more people want females therefor I can make more from them. Don't sing song, I don't really make a profit. If you have a litter of 4, three sets of shots, declaw, tails docked, checkup is not going to cost you anything around 6k to 12k. "I should be compensated for my time", if you are doing it for the breed you would be glad to sacrifice at least your time wouldn't you?
Yorki4me, you seem to be pretty honest about it. I can respect that. It
is a business.
