My friends dog had puppies

I have a feeling this litter was planned. I mean, why would you intentionally leave an in heat b*tch in contact with an intact dog? Fact of it is, a responsible breeder tries everything in his/her power to prevent mixed litters. If you read the Code of Ethics of a few breed clubs, you'll find that many of them state "members shall guard against unplanned pregnancies" or something of the life. I'm just going to guess here, but chances are the dogs are not used for showing. So, why are they being left intact? Because they're too young to be speutered? Well, then aren't they too young to breed?

I agree with Bckrazy that this IS a BYB. Perhaps not in the respects of a full fledged puppy mill, like Wizard of Claws, but certainly not a responsible breeder.

OTOH, accidental litters are just that. Plenty of reputable breeders have experienced accidental litters, but, like Bckrazy mentioned, the "percentages" of their breeds have been kept recorded. This is usually a BYB tactic. As well, Beeniesmom, we do try to educate people like in your case. It's just that, like another poster mentioned, the majority of the people we try to educate turn the other cheek and don't listen. It does get frustrating and that's why I'll stop typing...now.

yeah ... ok... i guess you are right.... besides..... i don't care what anyone says.... ALL PUPPIES ARE ADORABLE! I'm sure they will have a loving home.

Unfortunately, that is NOT the case Puppies are put to death just like adult dogs. That is a very bad misconception. That kind of thinking is what makes it easier for people to convince themselves that it's ok to breed any dog to another. I wish people would educate themselves!

Okay, people, I have just got to say something here. None of you who are attacking jesse_3's friend know the what happened except that two puppies have been born. I am so surprised and upset that you could say things you are without knowing all the facts!

I think this is the first time I have ever written this way but I feel so bad for jesse_3. All the poor girl has done is to come on here to tell you what she feels is happy news and she gets this!

I was thinking the same thing. I am glad you said something!!

Congrats the your friend, and her new puppies. I hope you can post pictures soon!! Good luck to her in finding homes for them!

this does sound like a BYB situation.
But i still wish your friend all the luck with the little babies.
Maybe try talking her into spaying her dog now??

I have missed a couple of days here, this is what happened...Brittany's dad adopted this dog (Sadie) and she all ready had puppies. The owners were going to kill her and the pups, so her dad save them! There is only two, and she is keeping one while her sister is adopting another one. I'm sorry..I didn't mean for this to end up in an argument. Thank you Chris for sticking up for me though!

I'm glad your friend's dad saved the mom and the pups.

Hope we get see some pics of the cuties!

[tikeyas_mom]

Well congrats on the new additions lol.
They must be so cute.
I am sickened that her old owners were going to kill the pups.
how could anyone kill an innocent puppy .. thats horrible .

[sammy101]

Oh,i'm happy her dad rescued them! and i'm glad they already have homes.
i dont know how people could kill innocent puppies

[jesse_3]

They are 3/4 rat terrier and 1/4 Chihuahua

In case if any of you were wondering, I got that combonation because, the owners were going to kill her because they weren't purebred (who knows what that means anyways?) They couldn't get money off of them because they were "mutts". Once again, I'm sorry for the confusion, I should have thought before I wrote.

(Thank you everyone else too for sticking up for me, I didn't have time to type that before!)

Everyone else that was angry, I understand, and I hope I wasn't sounding like a snot thanking them, I'm not trying to call you mean or anything!
