Staffy pup???

[mydogflick]

Flatcoat lover my brother has shown 2 of the male pups from our previouse dam.
LWDS both my dog and the stud dogs are KCC registered and of show quality we DONT breed to show as it is not my interest personally. THere are only 2 dogs bred from our lineage that are not desexed and that is my dam and one of my cousins dams. We live in Outback Australia and are not always able to attend Kcc meetings and Staffy club meetings .

Buttercup I looked at your site of all your pets "Rockee is a good Mummy and had a fake pregnancy so you brought her her own pup?????? sounds to me like she has been bred and she is a mutt not at all a champion. Also picking up free kittens from the showgrounds sounds to me like encouraging irresponsible breeding. Please dont judge unless you are an open book willing to be judged as well

Obviously you didnt read it properly seeing as I said I ADOPTED him from a SHELTER. I didnt get him for free either I paid $125 for him.

And Ya my parents tried to breed her before they knew about the dogs in shelters etc and they wanted her to have a litter of puppies before she was spayed so either way they still planned on spaying her. Thankfully it didnt work and she had a false pregnency.

I have yet to meet a breeder who bred to show. To the standard, yes. (and surprise, surprise - the almighty standard is there for a reason... and it's hardly just about looks to responsible breeders.)

What health testings DO you do on the parents? (I deleted my previous message to move it here).

ok here I go again defending myself again silly silly me
All our dogs wether they are to be used for breeding or not are all tested for Hip Dysplasia, cataracts, demodicosis brachycephalick syndrome,as well as the usual heartworm and other generic non breed specific tests

Oh come on, not fair. You specifically asked BC_Mom to give you her opinion of who should be breeding. When she gives you her opinion without any reference to your situation you act as if you have been attacked.

My personal opinion as to why I feel a dog should have some sort of titles (be it working or conformation) is that it shows that someone (actually more than just one someone) objective with a knowledge of the breed standards (which includes temperment) has evaluated that dog/bitch and decided that it is among the best that the breed has to offer. I know there are probably show peopla out there cringing because this judge or that judge is biased in some way. But the beauty of showing again in working class or conformation is that several people have looked over your dog. Left to our own opinions, fortunately or unfortunately, too many of us would decided that our dog is the most beautiful. smartest, sweetest dog of it's breed. But that is just my opinion.
