| Dante'smom:
I don't breed--never have, never will, but you asked for opinions.
I lost my wonderful Otto to osteo and my darling PussCat to nasal cancer. I wouldn't want a dog I loved to suffer from such dreadful diseases and I don't want to put myself thru the anguish of their illness. I don't care how "valuable" the dog is--cancer is too dreadful for words. This breed has enough problems without knowingly breeding dogs with cancer. We will never improve the health of this breed if we don't have rigorous standards for the dogs we breed. |
