because everyone's input is important.
On my desk I have one of those legal scales, you know, the kind that weighs guilty or not guilty. I put everyone's input on one side, and my stuff on the other side. I have to think ahead, think now, think what is already done, etc. I am not just considering me, I am considering the community, the society, the dog's wellbeing, and a zillion other things.
Sure, there are societies where this sort of breed is illegal to keep. On the other side, there are societies where this sort of breed is very popular.
If I would look at it in the same sense as that guns are illegal in Washington,DC but legal here....and that people are sensible enough to make the most of their rights, I would be honor bound to keep Jaws intact.....in the possibilty that his future services might be very important.
That does not mean that I would irresponsibly breed him just for the heck of it.
In all reality, most of us would not want a polar bear in our yard, but that does not mean that we should not protect the potential future of the species.
Well then why ask for our input??
