Why on earth do these BYBs automatically think imports are worthy of breeding??? There is an imported pup we were introduced to here on DCF (member has since dropped out since she couldn't hack her breeding practices being looked at by responsible breeders or educated people) that I recently found out was bred when he was about 11 months and again at 13 months. It just makes me want to scream! He's too young to have had all the health testing he should have had before being bred, and I don't believe he's ever stepped foot in a show ring or on a trial field.
I guess it's all about money. Money must be the answer to the question. I mean, they have quite a bit invested in importing the dog. And then they just breed to whatever bitches they have on their couch. You'd all be shocked if you saw what he was bred to last month. The icing on the cake is the bragging about what a fabulous European pedigree the pups have. Rant over....
One of the great things DCF does is to teach people how to distinguish between a responsible breeder and a money grubbing BYB. I hope we are all trying to pass this knowledge on to others who may be considering purchasing a puppy.
