Candy,

I almost pm'd you last night to be sure you were not
offended by the posts or the topic. That would hurt my
heart if you were. If everyone who breeds dogs, on a small
scale or the large scale (puppy farms) , were as reputable
and ethical as you are, there would be no need for breeding
or socialization type laws. Making these provisions law would
help "put teeth" into the existing framework of regulations.

I really believe the day is coming, sooner than we might
think, when the vast "silent majority" of animal lovers in this
country say "Enough is Enough" to the Puppy farm operators
and the back yard breeders (for profit). There are not enough
homes for the dogs alive today. Liz & Buddy.
