maybe this is off the subject but its still useful
-You said that you will be able to find loving good homes for the pups
In your own fantasy world, maybe. In reality, finding good homes for puppies is extremely difficult, especially for those of mixed origin. Giving them to anyone who comes to your door and is willing to take them or hand over cash does not constitute a truly good home. In fact, only 1 in 5 "free to good home" pets actually make it into a good home. That means, statistically, that in a litter of 5 puppies only 1 may actually end up in a good home. What happens when one of the new owners of one of those puppies call you six months later to say that they no longer want the dog? Would you be willing to take him or her back? These are all things that need to be considered. Every single puppy that you help bring into this world is your responsibility until it leaves this world. Also keep in mind that each good home you find for one of your puppies could mean one less good home for those in shelters looking for homes. In less than a year's time, your dog's puppies will be old enough to have their own puppies unless you require that they be spayed/neutered. This means even fewer homes for those in shelters, and the greater potential spread of genetic disease in your breed. Therefore, you may be able to find a great home for a few but, maybe some people have allergies to dogs and never knew it till you gave them that dog.. They would end up either giving it back, OR putting it in a shelter..
