My choice to purchase a well-bred purebred dog does not condemn another dog to death.
It does not increase the number of shelter dogs.

​

Wanting a dog with a predictable temperament from a healthy, carefully planned line does not prevent a shelter dog from being adopted.

​

Taking the time to research and choose a responsible breeder who follows every requirement is not the problem. It is not what you should be angry at. It is not where the blame belongs.

​

I am not the one who irresponsibly bred dogs and left them in a shelter. Neither are ethical breeders.

​

This is my home, my family, my life — and my choice of what kind of dog fits best. Maybe I need a working partner, a sport competitor, a show dog, or simply a companion who matches my lifestyle. Whatever my reason for supporting a reputable breeder, it does not sentence another dog to death.

​

A breeder who health-tests, temperament-tests, and proves their dogs in sport or show does not contribute to the stray dog problem.

​

The stray dog crisis is real — but it is not fueled by responsible breeders or those who buy from them.

​

The problem comes from:
• The neighbour who buys a “purebred” without papers because it’s cheap.
• The friend who impulsively grabs a puppy from a pet shop.
• The person chasing profit with the latest “designer mix.”
• The family who breeds “just once” so their dog can “experience motherhood.”
• The owner who buys the wrong breed without research, then gives it away.

​

A reputable breeder offers lifetime support and takes responsibility for every puppy they produce. Their dogs will never be abandoned in a shelter.

Yes — be upset about the number of homeless dogs. That anger is justified. But look closer before you assign blame.

​

Responsible breeders are not the cause of the problem.
We are part of the solution.
