What is wrong with everyone these days breeding everything that has working parts? The shelters are full to the brim with dogs and a the majority are healthy and adoptable and at least a third of those are purebreds. With all of those wonderful dogs, why are people still breeding?......greed.......ignorance..both. Then when they can't sell their dogs they just dump them at the shelter. Kohl, Carter, Rowan and Baby were all dumped by their breeder who continues to breed and when his current set of puppies is too old to sell quickly, they will be dumped too as the sad cycle continues.
Just because your dog is purebred doesn't mean it should be bred (even if it has papers). Don't breed or buy while there are dogs of your breed that are healthy and wonderful waiting to die in the shelter. If you are compelled to breed, you should rescue at least as many dogs as you produce and should only produce when you have enough homes waiting for your litter. You should only breed to IMPROVE the breed, not line your pockets or pay for the purchase price of your dog.
We have several dogs in need of foster homes, please think about rescuing instead of buying or rescuing instead of breeding.
