I agree but like you said I thought it was about the breeder not the pups.

" I would not be proud if my pup if it came from such a place"

To me thats like saying i would not be proud of a child that i adopted from a crack head. Its not the child or in this case the pups fault where it came from.

In my opinion they are gonna breed no matter what we do. I think its great when a pup from them actually goes to a great home. Im sure like most on this site my dogs are treated like my kids. They live in my house with me and get plenty of exercise in my back yard and on daily walks.

Im not being rude or mean. just wanted to say that because you cant tell by the written word what people are thinking.

Been looking at Kimbertal website and by the looks of their studs pedigrees, two of their studs is half brothers with my Kaiser..

Kaiser's sire is same as Iran's and he shares same dam with Rio.

It's a pity these dogs ended up in their hands and are being exploited!!

What names are the studs?

I agree that the people at Kimbertal aren't very knowledgable or caring. Anne seems to be done with me now that I have the puppy. I've asked her several questions since and either been ignored or given the bare minimum response.

Please no one scream and yell at me for what I'm about to say its not meant as rude or disrespectful.

Ann is extremely over weight and walks with a cane around the office. The only reason i say that is i highly doubt she goes into the kennels very often. It was a struggle for her to get up from her desk and go get my pedigree paperwork from across the room.

Her daughters who told me they have been there for only 3 years do the work with the dogs. While i was there anything she needed she called the girls by intercom.

I doubt Ann is very knowledgeable about the breed. Like i said the owner didn't even come out to meet me.

I don't really have anything to add to what has already been said, but I just wanted to welcome you both 20paws and Kevinbolin

Please do stick around and make yourself at home and it would be great if you introduced yourself in our introduction section.

My first dog out on my own is from a BYB. I did no research and had no guidance, I was 19 and just knew I wanted a Siberian Husky. I love my dog and would never give her up but I am also not proud of where she came from and use my knowledge and education since then to help others not make the same mistake and to steer them in a better direction because when it comes to investing in a companion that you hope will long 10+ years, health, temperament, and breeder support is so important. My husky is conformationally ugly. Her breeder sucks. I don't take it personally because my dog is not an extension of my ego. I know what she is and I can own it. When you know better you do better. To the untrained eye regarding proper breed structure, the public thinks she is so gorgeous and many have asked about breeding her. Yikes! Education is SO important.

I'm sorry you took offense to my response but this is a discussion forum and not just one side, what someone wants to hear, is allowed. I personally don't see my response as rude considering this breeder in question, my response is tame compared to others you will find on the Internet, but I think you just took it personal and in the wrong context. Everyone should of course be proud of and happy with their puppies(and human children since you made that comparison). That doesn't mean you have to like the source.
