As far as breeding, i know what your saying about dogs ending up without homes. I believe this happens a lot with low quality breeding. The way i see it, if your going to spend anywhere from $800-$2500 for a pup, you intend to keep him. If i were to breed my dog, who has a great bloodline, and is purebreed, I wouldnt match him up with any bitch,lol. I would pick one with an even better bloodline, so i would be producing top notch dogs, which would generate a better clientell base, than say, two random junk yard pits breeding, and selling the pups. My other pit is a lower quality dog(from poor breeding), and i didnt educate myself before i purchased him, which i should have.
We have to agree to disagree on this subject, do you know how many purebred dogs end up in the system a victim of circumstances? As a horse owner it happens in that world too, I just cringe whenever I hear anyone breeding any animal. Sorry been around the homeless pet world way to long and I am telling you, you can breed with the best of intentions but at least 1/2 of the litter at some time in it's life will end up in a shelter especially our bully breeds because there are too many uneducated ass*oles in this world.....Sorry about my rant but I am absolutely passionate about this......ADOPT don't BREED.......again I am sorry but I see too many tragic stories out there......<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->
