Breeding without showing? - Page 3 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I am a "live and let live" type person. There is a big difference in a puppymiller and a hobby breeder. Anyone who takes good care of their dogs, spares no vet expenses, tries to improve and breed from good stock, gives a guarantee, etc..why should they be shunned...? Wouldn't it be better to help people learn and improve.
I posted this statement on a showbeeders forum and got "delisted" so fast by the adminstrator, I no longer fit their profile of a show breeder. LOL..
I wish I could say all show breeders took good care of their dogs and went by the "rules" but sadly that is not true..many show breeders are nothing but "High class" puppymillers.
I would like to hear from the UK people...perhaps my views were formed there. We knew many reputable breeders who did not show..they had show quality and sodl for showing, but never stepped in the ring themselves with a dog.
My family bred show quality Boxers..but did not show.

I absolutely agree with this statement. That is the thought that came to mind when talking to a lot of show breeders.
