I realize there are dogs being put down everyday...which makes me wonder why ANYONE would breed..purebred or not?? It makes no sense when people say there is a difference in adding to the pet population by breeding pure's. There are a ton of pure's in rescue's and pounds so why breed more pure's?? Sorry this just doesnt make any sense to come down on people who breed mixed breeds when they find what they believe are good responsible homes...now lets be honest...you NEVER know IF someone is going to be a good owner or not?? Just buying a dog with a pedigree doesnt guarentee a forever home.

Your 200 percent right, my YT club alone has God knows how many yorkies in foster homes right now and there are several that they have that can never be rehomed due to problems with them. Just wish people bred more responsibly and not any yorkie or whatever breed they have with papers.
People also need to be more selective on where their dogs go and not to the first person that comes along with money for the dog. But these are my thoughts and no one has to agree with what I say or feel. My only concern is the dogs, sometimes I think I care to much
