Oooooo, naughty, naughty girl. You didn't read what I wrote very well. I haven't been selling any dogs or I wouldn't have 39. Also, I wrote that the reason I had to "run away in a hurry" was because I was only supposed to have 3 dogs and at the time I had 30. I have only been in MO for 5 years and did not plan on being a breeder. I also didn't know that MO is known for being a puppy mill state, I never even heard the term until 3 years ago. My dogs had free run of the house before we moved, except when they were in heat or had babies. There were 30 dogs and 5 humans in a small 3 bdrm house with no fenced in yard. That house was only about 900sq ft. This one is over 2100sq ft and it has a back yard that is not completely set up yet. They are living in the basement and while I do have crates, cages and xpens they are not confined except when they are in heat or have babies.
I can name each and everyone of my babies and they all know their names. I can tell you who came from who and those that were purchased I can tell you where they came from and their breeders names.
Be honest now, does that sound like a backyard breeder? Or a puppy miller? If you feel you can believe what I say then I hardly fit the discription of a BYB or miller. If you look up all of the posts I have posted on this site and read a few, you will find me very open in all my dealings, even to the point some people would not be so open.
I am a very honest person and I treat people like they are honest too. I hope you revise your opinion of me but if you don't there's nothing I can do to help you see the truth. Sylvia
BTW: You have some very beautiful babies yourself. Sylvia |
