Pregnant Scottish Terrier

[ScottieMommy]

This breeding was an accident. And just to let you all know when the Poodle was over it was Nenas 3rd day into heat and someone well said to me that they cant get pregnant untill day 11 or so i believe. No one was born knowing it all.

These puppies will get ALL that is needed for them PERIOD.

So go to a shelter, pick out two dogs, and pay for them to be PTS.

Essentially, that's what you are doing by breeding mixed breed dogs. There could be shelter puppies/dogs being adopted, but no, you breed more mutts.

Might as well make it official and do it in person.

You aparently dont get it do you? Before getting Nena i moved the eath to try to adopt and NO just because one side on my home was NOT fenced the dogs where given to someone else who i then saw adopting them out again because she was moving. If the dogs would of come home with me right now and forever will still be with me!

And NO i am NOT a breeder how dare you say that? ONE mistake makes you into something your not? Dont you get it i am getting my dog spayed after this and her puppies as well. You all seem to find something wrong every single time to turn this around. But i seriously dont care what you think of me really. I know i love my dog and will do whatever it takes for the puppies to make it.

[Lady's Human]

No, we get it completely.

You, however, are ignorant beyond words.

And NO i am NOT a breeder how dare you say that?

Sadly some rescues get hopped up on some ego trip and don't look far enough into the situations. They become blind to the reality of the world. They don't budge for anything. They don't realize how much harm they do by being overprotective. They forget that sometimes they have to let go.

On the opposite end of that... perhaps that particular dog really really really needed a fully fenced in yard. Some personalities are like that. Those people may have seemed like the best choice at the time.

I've been on both sides of the fence. I was denied an adoption because i was younger than they thought i was in our conversations (yet I met their age requirement according to their rules.) And I'm also involved in the rescue circuit. I've seen the ups and downs in both.

Thanks everyone for pointing all that out. I agree with everything, yes about the shelter too.

And one MORE time as for the ADD can someone PLEASE stop posting it? I am SURE we have covered that if not go back and real the WHOLE thread if you did not, thanks.

By the way when i said something about the abortion in some other forums and compare them with a child people went nuts on me! Dont we always say animals are like humans? I said you would NOT abort a child if you did not have money to care for yourself or you do not have the time to love that child. Because there are wonderful people who cant have children and thanks to those who dont abort their dream comes true. Why? Why do we think we can do this to a dog? Because she CANT talk and is smaller than us? I am sure she has a heart, she can feel her mother instincts by now. I would never do such thing UNLESS her life was really on the edge.

Because thousands of children don't die in our country on a daily basis because there are no homes for them.

However, because there are people who think little Fifi would make a great momma, and so and so wants a puppy - there are thousands of completely sound, healthy puppies dying in the shelter daily. Because some shelters are so overrun they don't have the means to do it humanely, either.

Just because YOUR puppies won't go to the shelter doesn't stop the other puppies already in the shelter from dying. It's all about "Help control the pet population; have your pet spayed or neutered."

Crow_Noir, comparing dogs and comparing children is like comparing apples to oranges. When kids are put to sleep by the millions each year, then you can bring them into the picture. I am not trying to be rude, and perhaps in someone else's case I have failed to do that, but honestly one thing I can't stand is when kids are brought into the picture of the unwanted pet population and breeding.
