Yes, I choose to prop it up

I prefer dogs with traceable traits and behaviors.

I prefer dogs bred for a purpose and instincts to match my lifestyle.

I prefer a dog whose breeder chooses not to promulgate undesirable/debilitating diseases or bone development.

I prefer a dog whose breeder stands by his puppies with health guarantees.

Yes, I prop up the system that develops great dogs and furthers the development of the right temperaments.

Can also come down to timing. Sometimes a few breeders have litters available and sometimes you’ll go months with few

AKC Breeder of Merit matters more than the GRC. We got ours from the breeders

What breeder did you use in Idaho?

I believe their name was Hanson. If I remember, I will dig out the paperwork

There’s a movie you can watch that’ll tell you all you need to know.

Wasn’t Benji and Basenji or am I misremembering?

People buying dogs from breeders 👎

Where else do you think you can buy them? The grocery store? The dogs themselves?

I see. Think adopting a dog is great idea, and donate to a local Samoyed shelter that does great work.

Some of us can't find the breed we want from a rescue shelter.

I have a reply but will post tonight when I have time in a couple hours.

So I have posted about this before but breeders and shelters both have a place.

^This. One of our dogs is from a breeder, and our other is a same-breed rescue.

Oh brother.

Designer puppies (mixes) are very different from pure bred dogs. You are greatly misinformed.

Love it. My mini-golden-doodle (red) was crazy expensive, but she’s perfect
