Re: Ok guys...I value your opinions and

Becky:
You know that I have had serious misgivings about the whole realm of breeding and its lack of legal definitions (ie puppymill, hobbyist, AKC breeder, byb).
Please google up and read this on line article by Charlotte McGowan (AKC judge), What is a Puppy Mill
Please focus on point #4 where she speaks of overpopulation as 'rhetoric' and why, and then #5 that Petland and Hunts exist because AKC breeders are NOT fulfilling the demand for quality pets.
To all the world you know what you are. I surely know what you are (and I mean that in a good way).
You are not someone who should/needs to be challenged about breeding.
(Among others), people that NEED to be challenged about breeding are folks that breed without AKC paperwork for the parents and ultimately for the get.
And, by the way, if you study or look at a genetics chart/study, it IS about the numbers.
When you posted you alluded to an accidental breeding. If this is an already occurred breeding situation then I would look at this situation like that of the Native American community...All new life is a thing to welcome. Even if an unwed girl is pregnant, the new life is not responsible for the parents actions an is to be welcomed into the world.
An unplanned breeding from a kennel such as Countryside should not be a reason for termination of the pregnancy.
Becky, you state that summer is an easy time and I think that you have a pretty good support network. It may do your heart good to play with the pups during recovery.
The answer is inside of you.
My advice is to stop posting on the other Forum.
