I haven't had a bad experience personally, you see, I do volunteer work at a couple of the local animal shelters and unfortunately I see dogs there that were bought on a whim by people who didn't consider the magnitude of taking proper care of a pet and what it may entail.

I agree 100% that all dogs should be adopted by someone who will love and care for them, I only meant to pass along a message about what can happen if the circumstances change for the pet and what the majority of the outcomes are for them. Most of the time they are dropped off at a shelter or just set free somewhere and it's not fair to the animal.

I meant no harm in posting and did not imply that you were not a good breeder as I'm sure you are, and I'm sure you don't just sell to anyone without a little background on them and asking the reason they are getting a pup from you. I only meant to raise awareness for the animals about a problem that seems to be getting worse by the numbers I have been seeing at the shelters lately.

That post was not meant for any one individual here, this site is visited by alot of people and I was only trying to get a message out for their sakes about what it means to own a pet. I joined this site just before I lost my last dog "Squirt" and many members here reached out to me with kind words, I'm only trying to return what was shown to me here.

I'm sorry I posted on your thread and got your fur ruffled, there was no intention to do that. Good luck with the pups.

Insanity is a long and winding road ... I think I finally made it there.
