We've all heard the horror stories about the conditions in which breeders raise purebred puppies. From what you might have heard, it sounds so cruel as to how breeders supposedly treat innocent animals.

While we all have our take on adoption vs. breeding, it's important to know all the facts before we judge anyone. It may be hard to consider that breeders are not always evil, but you should definitely be open-minded about it.

In fact, on brave woman tells her story about her years as a doggy breeder on the next page. She'll demonstrate real life examples as to how it's not an evil job and how much she cared for each doggy even if they weren't perfect.

Whether you end up changing your mind about breeders, at least you'll come out more informed about the breeding world.

Find out why not all breeders are ‘evil' after the break.

    While I support rescue shelters I cannot side with them to end all purebred breeding. I have never gotten a dog from a disreputable breeder.
    I shall never be without a pug. I have two at the present time and they are the most loyal companions and lap dogs one could ever want.
    This country wants to take every group and situation and judge the whole on the acts of the minority. Extremism does not bring positive results in any direction or topic.

    I got my little puggy Mojo from a breeder. He has to be the happiest, and a bit mischievous, pup ever. I got to see his mama and papa. They were both happy and healthy pugs. The breeder showed a lot of love for her litters. She was great giving me all the info I needed to know before I brought my baby home. I got to see the litter in person before I selected Mojo. The breeder sent me pictures of my new baby every week until I brought him home. It’s a shame that there are puppy mill breeders out there that give breeders a bad name. Mine was the best. Thank you Lisa!

    I got my Frank from a breeder. I didn’t really know how it worked and I wasn’t happy with the conditions there when I went to actually take Frank home. I would not buy from her again and IF I got another baby I would do much more research on the breeder or go the rescue route. Frank was six weeks old when mom and I brought him home, he had fleas, and when we took him to the vet we learned he had both hook worms and tapeworms. I’m happy to say today he is a healthy happy 5 month old.

    I don’t think all breeders are bad the good one’s want to make sure you will give a good home to their dog rather than just sell them and if a breeder asks for the money first and does not wantot know whatsort of home the dog will be in or how youwill care for them them that is the red flag not to buy from them

    I bred toy poodles for years. Raised the puppies in my livingroom. Where they were thoroughly socialized. Loved every one of them. Thoroughly screened new puppy homes and they went with a contract to spay/neuter. I miss them so…

    Still believe there are millions of bad breeders outs there and don’t feel she should be commended for taking care of the dogs she had. Pug rescues are bombarded with Pugs, owner surrenders, mistreated Pugs and like my own females from breeders when they can no longer produce. My own Pug was used by a backyard breeder till she was 8 and could no longer make them money. She was a complete mess of skin infection, fleas, cough. As well as being touch shy from being treated roughly. This whole article is BS.
