Hi Maneki Neko,
Thanks for your reply.
Very glad to hear that you are passionate about the importance of educating the public. We are on the right track already!!
PHP Code:
I'm not sure how awareness of puppy mills would negatively affect these folks. They are not interested in placing their animals with the sort of person who would just as happily buy from a pet shop.
Regarding this matter, I am referring to the possible views and misunderstanding of public (if they are not properly knowledgeable on this matter) towards these breeders; which I hope they won't be labelled as "back-yard breeders" just because they are breeding their pedigrees. But like you say, perhaps they do not pay attention to these misjudgment. Just my personal view of possible unfairness towards them.
I have just brought my Cocker Spaniel from a breeder at a reasonable price, well below market price. From the way they react when I took the puppy from them, I know that they sincerely love their dogs very much. I am very happy to have brought my puppy from them.
Regarding your thoughts of mixed breed cats and dogs, I would also like to contribute a little thoughts on this matter. I feel that owners should take responsibility towards their cats or dogs so as not be impregnated or be the cause of it (lol, very bad choice of words). They should keep a close eyes on their pets or spay them if they can't allocate so much time for them. Not only certain mixed breed may cause health implications to the new-borns, this situations critically contributes to the spike of strays (also because of public views on them being mix breed).
I totally agree to the importance on the change of this crooked opinion
Just my thoughts~
What do you think about this matter?
Let me know about your views
