If i were administration i would put a sticky at the top of that page telling people to only reply if they are interested in a puppy. I have seen it on other forums and it works pretty well. No nastiness. The breeders forum? well, as a new breeder I have been on the receiving end of a few smart comments myself but I am now on that persons "Ignore" list and she is on mine.  I do think that the site administrators here do a fantastic job. I just wish they would stop some of these posters that interject where they shouldn't even be as soon as they start. |
I am glad and thankful for those who care enough to let others know when there is a red flag.
If the breeders are doing nothing wrong then they have nothing to worry about. The breeders that may feel attacked may need to look at their breeding programs and perhaps change a few things.
As the threads that get heated are the ones breeding tinies, too many breeds, not to standard, or the ones that look like a puppymill............. Most of the time in these threads the breeders true colors come out, do you really want these types of breeders being able to sell their dogs here, without anyone being able to ask questions or show the red flags?
The injustice in my opinion, would be innocent YT buyers buying these puppies without the experienced people at YT letting them know what to look for.
The breeders I see on YT that are ethical/reputable have been able to be apart of this board successfully.
