Breeding questions/statements....

From the point of view of a responsible breeder, no one would ever rehome one of my dogs. My contract does not allow it.

I am responsible for each life I cause to be created, for as long as it is on this earth. My puppies can come "home" at ANY time during their lives, for ANY reason whatsoever. They leave permanently identified, and new owners are legally forbidden to rehome the animal in ANY way without notifying me first.

Responsible breeders care deeply that their puppies have loving and responsible homes for their lifetime, and take steps to insure just that.

Here's how it is, plain and simple. If the dog breeds are going to continue to exist they need breeders that do everything they can to weed out genes that cause health problems, temperament issues, and poor structure that is prone to injury. If this honorable task is left to the profit-minded, uncaring breeders, our world's dog breeds would be destroyed. And that would be a tragdey.

America is, or at least was, SUPPOSED to be a nation ruled BY the people. Weither or not that is still true there is no denying there is strength in numbers! Instead of just pointing fingers we need to come together and solve a problem both the pro breeding and anti breeding agree about, and that's that we need to stop the people that are pumping dogs into shelters, most of which to die under the euthanasia needle!

Who is responsible for 99% of the dying dogs? Backyard breeders and owners who don't spay/neuter their pets! THIS is the "enemy," not the people that are just helping their breed to survive all the human forces that are crippling it genetically, structrually, and mentally!

So please...I don't know if I can change any anti-breeding minds but maybe I can encourage some pro-breeding ones into seeing that taking all breeder's right to breed, reguardless of if they did anything wrong or not, is a sentence of death for the dog breeds. And that I am fervently against.

The world could use more breeders like you.
