i have this overwelming urge to watch free willy...

my parents got a dog through the ckc .. purebred american cocker.. got cateracts (however its spelt) in a year and cancer 2 years later.

no matter how the breeding my only concern, for any pet /animal is a good loving home. when i was a kid we got an english cocker who refused to die he was a superdog lived 14 years.

i do agree some ppl should not try to breed period animal or otherwise. lol

i think ,and im guilty of this as well, ppl have misread or taken too quick to judge, and have gotten a little heated of this poor guy and his puppies. i personally feel bad for my two dogs. the lab is two nuts short of manhood and the only thing he has ever humped was another male dog.. and our female shepard collie cross.. i think the snipped her brains by accident.. but i love them both all the same.

in the end we all should sniff eachothers butts and make up hehehe

Yes, but often the loving home turns unloving, when huge vet bills come in, and the dog has seizures every other day, and poops all over everything. Then it's often discarded. Not always, but often. Proper breeding, with top priority given to health and temperment (which to evaluate properly takes considerable time and money) will help to ensure that the dog gets to enjoy a happy healthy life, and makes an enjoyable experience for both dog and humans. Without the enjoyment on both sides, these things often end badly (for the dog).

LOL..this truly has turned into a circus side show.
thank god a moderator is involved or this thread would have been locked a long time ago.
All kidding aside...I can at least respect your determinism in your cause, regardless of my own point of view.
so, what happens when everyone only buys from "reconginized breeders" and/or adopt from rescue places.
What happens when all the rescue dogs are adopted. I mean there are lots of dogs waiting to be adopted, but in comparison to the millions of dogs every year that are purchased, the supply would very very quickly be drained.

not everyone wants to wait for 2 years to get a dog or pay a very large amount of money from what you are calling true breeders.

so does mean that people don't get to have a dog?

most of the dogs that people have come from people like me...not recoginized breeders...
why...because the breeders can't handle the demand..aka - the 2 year waiting list.

To be straight forward..Yes i bred Ginger for the money and because I enjoy her having puppies and I have a few people who have actually requested a puppy.

If your true breeders don't do it for the money why aren't they giving their puppies away???
lets be honest, unless it was a mistake, ultimately everyone breeds for money..or in some cases the prestige i guess they feel they get from the dog shows.
Which off course, if they do well at, the puppies they sell will be worth all the more.
