Ren- GO TO BED
think of that good old saying " same s***t, different day!"
The unsuspecting public really have NO idea at all..
I would reckon approx 80% of them think its the genuine breeders who have got it wrong..
I have had arguements in the past when they say.. " but why should I pay that amount when I only want a pet? It doesnt need to be registered, Im never going to show!"
and then they are willing to take the risk with the health issues.
and seem equally not bothered about the breeding parents of these babies..
its so frustrating.
one time you used to HAVE to have a licence to own a dog..( it wasnt expensive so no issues there)
I say ALL breeders should have a licenceto be screened say every 2 yrs - then all prospective owners of cat/dogs should ask to see the licence.
then in turn, all new puppy/kitten owners should get theyre licence through the breeder.
No licence=big fine
( sue's perfect world of course!!)
