Re: Why I Decided Against Breeding My Dog

Trouble is people often dont think past the wanting to have cute puppies or the thought that it will be good for their bitch to have a litter. They often believe in urban myths

A woman I know bred from a temperamentally unsound bitch because she thought motherhood would settle her down.

A woman joined my dog club because the puppy she bought from this woman turned out to be fearful, aggressive and a complete nightmare and she needed help. She struggles on trying to deal with this dogs issues.

Goodness knows what happened to the littermates if they had similar temperaments. The woman who bred them wouldnt care less. Our rescue people in town work overtime trying to rehome dogs, there seems to be a never ending supply of dogs and cats. The new year is always a nightmare post xmas.
