What is a Breeder?

[applesmom]

Anyone who has even remotely thought about breeding purebred dogs; might truly enjoy this speech by respected AKC judge Peggy Adamson (now deceased.)

The speech was given in 1969 at the Annual Symposium of the "National Dog Owners and Handlers Association" and applies today every bit as much as it did then.

The speech is lengthy but well worth the read. Peggy really managed to capture the heart and soul of a truly dedicated breeder!

Excellent!

And yet, by virtue of who we are, on Pet Talk, I fear this is just "preaching to the choir!" ;)

True! But there's always someone who might benefit with a membership this large!

You are correct that it is every bit as valid now as it was then!

Thank you for finding it and sharing it!
