Please unless you plan to show and unless you are doing it for the love of the breed and NOT money please get your animal spayed or neutered.

Sobbing here....4,000,000 healthy pups...my heart breaks...I try so hard to take as many of these arses out as I can, the only way I can...and I know it really isn't even a statistical dot on a spreadsheet...but I have to do something...this is a staggering number,how can people continue to let this happen?

My computers been having problems, so I missed this thread, I just want to say, I'm so proud of all of you and the way you answered this post, hopefully others who are ignorant about breeding will read this and understand why it important to not breed pets and never support backyard breeders. I love you guys!!!!!!

I have to believe that we will all answer for everything we have done in our lives. There are days when that is the only reason to get out of bed.

I know exactly what you mean.

It's so sad and infuriating there is so much dog overbreeding in this world. And under-educating about overbreeding and euthanasia. If a country is euthanizing millions and millions of dogs a year, wouldn't you think our educational and governmental institutions would be morally led to have started to teach dog/cat responsibility by now? Dogs and cats are such huge parts of the American fabric and they are being so horribly relegated to shelter living alone until killed off in huge numbers, so why can't our learning institutions at least add a 30 minute course a week in schools and college to try to teach our kids and young adults about the pet euthanasia disgrace and make it politically correct to own a pet responsibly and how breeding should be left to the experts for the good of the animals?

I am sad, I am sick, I am disgusted...at the same time I too am so very proud of our members here at YT for seeing through this greeder...way to go people!!! One by one, we as a whole can make a difference and it was shown here in this thread. I am so happy to be just a small, tiny part of this wonderful group of compassionate members of YorkieTalk. Spread the word...we are here to stay.

I walk through a store and I hear Angel by Sarah McLachlan. It makes me cry. I always relate this song to all the cats, dogs, kittens and puppies that are being abuse, malnourished, tossed out of their homes and used in puppy mills and greeders. I can not for the life of me understand how someone can treat a cat or dog this way. She had posted that the female just gave birth again. The poor girl did not even have a rest from her last breed. And when she is done with her she going to toss her away and get a new female or just breed her daughter instead. All those little angels have to suffer because of one persons greed.

Such a horrible thing. The woman should be stoned. They are very very healthy pups who have already been to the vet and wormed once. The mama dog has been to the vet and has a clean bill of health. Everyone is fine. They will continue to get wormed and vet checked. They will all have the proper shots by my vet when it comes time. They are very sweet puppies and will have good homes. I wanted to breed my dogs, like I said stone me ok. If you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all.

Everything was fine and the puppies were cute. This is sad. Both of the parents are getting fixed. Wanted one litter so sue me. I wonder how many here breed over and over. I never in my life have bred an animal. This was a one time deal for me. I really wished I hadn't done it before I even read your mean posts. It has been done. There is nothing I can do to change it.

All you can do is make me feel horrible. Make me feel like I murdered someone. I take care of my dogs. They are not in cages. They are loved and sleep in my bed with me. If this is all so terrible then do what you will.

Thanks

By the way I have had Annie for about a year and a half now. I got Buddy in November so there. I didn't breed her right after her puppies were gone. God.

[Tinarinkus]

So very well written!!

It would be wonderful if we could have some spay/neuter laws with real consequences but until we get more support from the pet industry that won't happen. Have you ever seen a dog food company or pet store advocate spay/neutering? Sure, they may have adoption events but they don't require the animal to be altered. We do adoptions at a chain pet store every weekend and not once have they required the dogs to be altered. Most vets spay and neuter hundreds of dogs each month but how many recommend neuter/spaying your pet. Fewer pets mean less money. As for puppy mill dogs, I'm sitting here with 3 mill yorkies, 1 on my lap , 1 next to me and another in a padded bed at my feet. I can guarantee that they were spayed before we placed them for adoption. People like her are the reason that reputable rescues require so much before placing dogs. I want to cry thinking about the way the trust that these poor dogs put in her was betrayed.

You might feel differently when your little girls heart stops beating from maybe this final breeding you put her through. You came here and told us you rescued her!!!! From what another greeder so you could use her for the same thing??? This saddens me so much because I really did rescue a breeder and yes she was spayed and still only lived another 2 years and was only 7 the day she died. How could you possibly say you rescued her and then do this to her again? It is beyond my understanding. I hope all rescues in the future will find out about what you did and never allow you another dog to abuse.

I'm really dumbfounded by your total lack of feeling any responsibility for these creatures you say you LOVE.

(copied & pasted from your other thread...)
Tina, evidently you feel it's "ok" to RESCUE a dog from one bad situation & put them right back into that same kind of life? Honestly, how did you think people would react?

I'll repeat what's been said in case you didn't get it...spay & neuter both of your pets if you love them ( you really should alter the puppies too since you really know nothing about the parents). Please, please, leave the breeding to those who've invested the time & resources to do the breeding correctly.
