Pregnant Scottish Terrier

[ScottieMommy]

Sounds like Backyard Breeding to me!!


You are seriously pathetic! I know this male dog since he was 12 weeks old. I know his previous owners and parents before my friend got him. I have ONE dog at home not 30. And after this TWO puppy litter she will be spayed. PUPPIES WILL NOT BE SOLD. NO MONEY WILL BE MAKE OUT OF THIS.

Still think about a backyard breeder?

PS: You dont need Pedigree to LOVE a dog. So thats why i did not ask for one. These puppies will be kept in the family.


And dont you people read when you post links? DONT you see they all say the same this one does? On planning to breed? I guess you ALL got to make it big in here huh?

If your family wants puppies, go to a shelter and adopt. You have no way of knowing what the temperment of the pups is going to be. You have no way of knowing what genetic issues they are going to have. This "unplanned" breeding was foolish. Letting an intact male anywhere near a female in heat is just dumb.

There are plenty of scotty mixes on petfinder. Give one of them a home instead of breeding more.

well let me tell you...... pedigree or not........ scottish terrier with poodle/westie/or whatever other dog.... even if you know him since forever.... is BYB!!!........ not only moneywise.......it´s a thing of being responsible.....

if you cared about the breed and were responsible, would at least get a healthy male dog of SAME breed...... regardless of pedigree.....

but the ad was like "hey if you gt a male dog, here´s my bitch, no matter what breed he is" thats BYB...... and being irresponsible

if you had planned to breed the least you could have done was search for a good SCOTTISH TERRIER male......

ok, the poodle breeding was "accidental" ok...... things happen, and we understand that, but deliberately planning on doing that?? come on.......

Yes i know it was my mistake. But at least i know for a fact that these puppies WILL never endup in a shelter. Because one 100% sure i am keeping one and i am 100% sure my grandmother is keeping one. And no her dogs ALL died of old age, she NEVER gave one up.

So my mistake wont endup with any puppies in the shelter. Like some people actually sell them for $1000 or up. Money NEVER crossed my mind.

The point everyone here is trying to make that even though you have homes for two puppies, that is two puppies in a shelter somewhere that are going to die rather than get a home that you could have provided to them.

If you and your grandmother wanted puppies so badly there are MANY good ones, even pedigreed ones, in shelters you could have chosen from rather than allow, plan or accidentally breed your own dog.

This is BYB. You should be getting this poor dog in for an abort and spay before it is too late.

You have mixed breeds. You had not researched; don't know or seem to care WHAT the standard if for the breed. No testing, no concerns about what genetically may turn out wrong with puppies. I agree wit the above, if you and grandma wanted puppies, go to a shelter. Now go take care of your dear Nena while you can.

My grandmother was not looking for a puppy at the moment. She LOVES Nena and told me if she was ever to have puppies she will take one for sure. Her oldest dog recently passed away two months ago.

By the way some shelters make it really hard to adopt sometimes. Like if you rent half the shelters or more will turn you down and they are really strick. I am sure that an animal lover who rents will NOT return a dog to a shelter.

Down here in my city i was looking at Petfinder once and one no kill shelter adopts out dogs for $250 if there purebred and they even give you papers that owner left for more charge which is pathetic! They even wanted $250 for a Puggle and added him under the purebred list. Are you kidding me? That seriously got me mad, how they compare purebreds to mutts in a shelter and charge more. While the kill shelters charges $55 for ALL dogs and they need the money even more.

And how much are the vet bills for the pregnant puppy going to cost you? This is impossible to justify away. No matter how you look at it it is a poor decision.

[crow_noir]

It is NOT pathetic. A lot of times these dogs come to these rescues in very poor condition and need a lot of vet care. Not to mention the time they spend in the care of the rescue. There's the cost of food. The cost of gas if the rescues do adoption day events.

You may spend a very low price for a shelter dog, but you spend just as much, if not more in vets costs.

Ugggh!!! See, this is the attitude right here that i find disgusting! Would you suggest the same thing to a human mother that hasn't even had one child yet?

I can see if this dog had been mated by something twice its size getting an abortion, but not for something like this.

These pups are on the way whether you like it or not, let's at least be civil with this poster and give as much advice as we can for a HEALTHY mom and litter.
