I find it disgusting that there are people here that think that those that have different opinions or even possibly undereducated about what really goes on in the pet world don't have a right to come and post on this forum.

It is sickening how RUDE and forcefully opinionated many here have been.

I think a lot more could be accomplished if y'all would take newcomers gently under your wings and guide them in the right direction. You know "... more flies with honey."

Realistically all you do by alienating and angering newcomers that have bred is make them bitter towards the spay/neuter crowd. ...possibly making it less likely that they'll do rescue in the future. You miss out a great opportunity to make their pets' lives better.

Rather than throwing venom filled opinions, why not be kind with your words? Use some tact people! Educate and post facts. (Not just statistics and preaching.)

Most, if not all, of the people on this board have their pets spayed/neutered as soon as the vet gives the OK (appropriate ages vary by vet). I am amazed that you did not have that done for your female(s). If you had done that, this thread wouldn't even exist.

We are not veterinarians here but again most, if not all, of the people on this board totally rely on their veterinarian and would not come here seeking medical advice. If you are relying on a group of people on the internet I really feel sorry for your dog and puppies. Responsible people spay/neuter and consult with their veterinarian when they have problems, questions or concerns. I really don't even understand why you started this thread.
