How do you know the people purchasing the puppies won't be good breeders. Afterall, somebody gave you breeders a chance or you would not be breeding, because you all would have spayed/neutered your yorkies.
BUT, I do understand that their are people out there that will just breed for money and not care about the animals health. I think our government should step in and make a law that states, "if you breed a dog and not care about their health then that person should be imprisoned", but then how would you find the bad breeder. I truly don't know if there is an answer that could solve this problem, but I know by not letting everyone not breed is not right. There are alot of good people out there that would love to breed and raise puppies. |
I never said every single puppy should be required a spay/neuter contract and if I implied that then I am sorry, that is not what I meant at all.
I believe if the puppy is suitable for breeding, the breeder should give the owner the option. I do understand to a point though why some breeders will insist on a spay/neuter contract with no exceptions but like you said if everyone did this, there would be very few puppies. Take biewers for example, their are very few here because all the breeder insist on a spay/neuter contract no exceptions and in my opinion this is not right, they won't even take it in consideration, even if you are a top breeder and raise the best dogs and have the best care for them. Someone is going to have to give in, or there won't be any biewers here. I myself see no problem with letting someone breed the puppy they buy if it is suitable for breeding and if the owner is responsible and cares for them. If he/she is not suitable for breeding, then why would you want to breed him/her? Why not spay/neuter?? You don't want to make the breed worse but better and this would be where a spay/neuter contract would come up.
I wish too that the goverment would make such a law, but I highly doubt that will ever happen, it would be too much like living in a perfect world which will never happen.
