    I don't want to offend you but imo you should know all this already BEFORE you make the decision to be a breeder.

    What dogs are you breeding and why ?

    Errm, am I being thick, but what has a sheep to do with breeding dogs? I know I don't have a high opinion of breeders, so I thinking that the post reflects a breeders IQ.

    Thanks, what they wrote must have been even more stupid than what they replaced it with.

    Wonder why that was done??
    How strange.

    The OP was a post asking about first time breeding and wether they had to be mated a few times for it to work. Hence my answer.
  • I wasnt questioning your answer con 1888, (from the title of the thread) just doubting the IQ of the OP, I'd guessed they'd asked something dumb.

    It makes me sad. I wasn't trying to be offensive at all but people need to be educated.

    I reckon animal welfare should be included at school.

    Sadly too many are out there purely to make £ and don't give a damn about the pups they are producing.

    Any yet the OP claims to have experience of Kennel Club registrations....
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.
  • Last time I mentioned paying for pets I was shot down.

    Good job one one got here before me then. As for animal husbandry, better left out of school IMO.
