Hey everyone!!!!

Yeah I have herd of backyard breed before! From all you! Sorry but we are not any of those! Well I not sorry. BYB is when people just take dogs and throw them together and let them breed and they are probaly muts. My mom breeds AKC dogs and makes there breed better. And we mean to breed them we do not all of asuden have puppies unexpected! These things are pland!

And you know where I have been this whole time! I have been at CuteFamilyPets.com There boards are much better and they do not care if my mom breeds dogs they are just excited to see pics and how the puppies are progressing!

Bye;)

That's not what BYB are. There are thousands of BYB's that breed AKC registered dogs and many have just one breed of dog, not different ones. They don't breed 'mutts', just inferior specimens of a breed.

Most of the people at CFP feel generally the same way we do here. Many of us are members there, too. ;)

Wow So Many Puppies

Why did you breed a Poodle with a yorkie?
Just my opinion you made more unwanted mixed breed dogs.

Do you have homes good homes for all of these puppies?
I think (My opinion again I dont no your dogs pedigree) if you are not improving on the breed standard or showing your dog should be altered.

There are way too many unwanted poodles and Yorkies out there!

u said above that yourmom was breeding a yorkiepoo. which is a mut:)

I'm with Karen here. Why is it that the mintue someone has pups you all get crazy about jumping on them . We all here that have been here a while know who and what is going on in that persons home. I too don't like "throw away styles of pet ownership" but we nneed to remember we have a lot of kids under the age of 18 on here who can not run the home ,the parents do. Please check the profiles be fore jumping people. There is getting to be too much hurt on here . this is a place to help teach those needing it but not abusing them for things out of there control.

I didn't think I "jumped" on her, did I? I hope it didn't seem that way. :( I simply was explaining that her definition of a BYB was incorrect. :)

OT - having a space bar problem? LOL :D

Well I'm a bit torn. I really do not think anything said here is going to have any impact on the breeding and mainly will just cause bad feelings on all sides. Badmouthing someone's parents to them is just going to be hurtful too, I know I would be hurt by it. I also think it's unfair to expect a minor to "educate" their parents. If at 14 I suddenly began lecturing my mother on something she was doing and telling her it was unethical it would more likely cause strife and be considered disrespectful. If Frogsndogs felt her mother was doing something unethical and came here asking advice on how to handle this, it would be different.

Tikeya's mom, you can't just 'educate' someone by typing a couple sentences over a message board. If you put someone on the defensive, then your message is totally lost. I know I would not just suddenly take someone's word on something that I didn't even know. Some people out there think it is really unethical to keep animals as pets at all. If one were to come here and try to tell me how unethical it was, I would just shrug it off, and probably tune that person out.

I don't personally like to hear about mixing breeds purposefully, I know how I feel about it and I don't mind stating how I feel about it, but I can't expect anyone to change their ways just on that. I think it would take being face to face, someone trusted and well known who might talk about it gently over time, to truly educate or at least get across why some believe it is not a good thing to do.

Just my thoughts.

*EDIT: And not to seem holier-than-thou by the way. My first reaction was to want to be sharp about it too. I read more responses and thought it over more before I made this response, which is why I opened with "I am torn" ;)

I knew this would happen It was not aimed any any one just a general comment it happens more and more. Some of the longest posters are leaving becouse of it . Education is one thing but always saying the same thing person after person afterperson gets a little overboard. Do you not remember the problem you had Tikyas Mom?
I think we need an education site to just ad to a post as a link so people don't get hurt. You could just add it to the person.
I lurked for a couple years before I joined so that I knew who was who , then after a while I got tired of this type of thing , I have come back only a short while ago to find it starting all over again. How do we treach love and caring if we hurt people ?All I'm saying is think and check on who you are replying to before you answer.
I think thats why Kmfer left and she had a wealth of info that was helpful and useful.

K9 soul you beat me to it thanks your more elegant than I.

I agree with Karen on this, why not welcome kristy instead of jumping right in and educating her as you call it.

Its better to learn as you go. I myself have learned a lot from all you very nice people since I arrived at Pet Talk! Did you know that I didn't actually know that when a cat is declawed that the end of its toes were amputated? I learned in hurry I wanted no part of that.

The bad thing about talking to young people in a negative way is that they actually turn off. I learned that from my children and grandchildren.

I have seen what is called a Yorkie-Poo, they are beautiful dogs and don't look like mutts.

I myself would love to see some pictures of these dogs.

Please be kind!

Willie

They are mutts.

K9soul and Corinna, my thoughts exactly! I agree with that point of view.

I don't like to see somebody jumped on and then when they are down. There has been too much of this of late.

That's not what BYB's do at all. BYB's are people who don't breed for the breed. Some characteristics of them include not registering their dogs, not having pedigrees for their dogs, breeding mutts, breeding multiple litters at once or many litters in a small period of time, breeding for money or for other stupid reasons, selling their puppies to pet stores, etc.

I made a big deal out of this on the last thread. I tried to make you understand that a dog should not be having litters two times a year since it's first heat. Everybody tried to help; tried to show that it hurts to bring more into this world. I wish you would talk to your parents and I wish they would understand. :(

I don't mean to sound rude, but I feel so bad for the dogs involved. It's not your fault, but I can't help but feel sad. :( :( :(
