regarding the blue dog, it looks clear to me that he is at stud not offered for sale. I don't know what the story was with Poppy (an advertised "breeding pair" ??) and whether or not the same person has owned this dog for several years. Is there any reason to believe the dog isn't well cared for? (this is quite apart from the issue of people breeding too frequently and putting dogs up for stud for financial reasons without making sure that the owners of the bitches are breeding responsibly -- again, I have no knowledge of whether or not this applies to the owner of the blue dog, though I often have suspicions of people who advertise their dogs at stud.)

just have look under my post you will see the state my poppy came to me from them half bloody starved broken tail broken toe heart murmmer both sides and had been breed half to death total of 6/7 in 5 yrs so nervouse everytime i tryed to stroke her shed wee herself with fright and is now only 8yrs old and not going to last much longer ,however the owner seemed to favour the blue boy over poppy maybe thats why

It is really, really sad but all she would do is use the money from this to buy another poor bitch and breed from her while she was still a baby Do you think she just breeds them once to get the KC reg and then can't be bothered to feed her for two years before she can do it again?

no she just breeds and breeds for the money end off in my opinion taking 6/7 litters out of a bitch in 5yrs says it all and then wen shes to old to breed half starve her ,and then get another and do the same .

This is one reason that in Australia, all breeders have to be registered and the puppies must be neutered and registered before they can be sold. It is a practice as barbaric as this breeders behaviour. My vet is Australian, he loathes having to neuter a tiny pup at 6 weeks old. :rant:

The KC has a rule that pupies from a bitch 8 years or older cannot be regestered. This may protect the quality of the puppies, but presumeably does not stop an unscrupulous breeder taking 6/7 litters out of a bitch in 5yrs. I was wondering if the KC limits the number of litters a breeder can register from one bitch or controls the time between litters.?

Perhaps it is time for a thread about the Kennel Club and K9 forum pressure to bring something about if it is not yet in place.

I hate what these people are doing, but look at farming. Female livestock are continually bred from untill they cannot produce any more and are then 'disposed off'.

Chickens are kept in horiffic conditions but we buy them for ourselves and our dogs. Even racing Greyhounds and working dogs can be kept humanely in conditions that we as pet owners would consider cruel. Comercial breeding (such as this person does and puppy farmers do ) is not the same as responsible owners and breeders who breed and show their dogs. As long as someone is willing to buy puppies from people like these, this practice will continue. As long as the dogs 'appear' well cared for, the rescue services can do little or nothing. :rant:

I am sorry to be so realistic. It does not make me any happier and it is one reason, I have never yet had a whippet puppy of my own. I usually end up with a rescue or adoption that someone has bought off people like this woman either conned or wanting a pup on the cheap that has ended up rejected. The wrong type of human breeding and the wrong type of human buying. :rant:

Hopefully, someone will buy this poor little girl on ePupz and give her a loving new home. I notice that they are selling a 2. 1/2 year old dog too. :rant: :rant: :rant:
