I even saw a novice breeder in Los Angeles that states the pups all come with AKC breeding rights.
Sounds like she's selling little income machines.
These are the sellers / buyers of pups that evcentually get the breed in trouble. They are selecting breeding dogs at 8 weeks old...
You don't see the Lakers scouting for ball players at the day care centers...so why do people sell fully breedable 8 week old dogs to idiots?
Dr. Butchko told me the other day that half of the novice breeders are losing more than half their litters through pure ignorance on how to even raise a dog. Think of all the suffering..
Then they sell the survivors way too young, unscreened, where the buyer may be getting a defective pup. In some cases, down the road they are used for breeding anyway.
