I hope I don't offend anyone with this...

Redyre, I am very sorry about this. I had no idea about past litters of a number of years ago, so I certainly didn't make my remark with any kind of malicious intent. I went to your website via your link a number of times and saw beautiful dogs and I noticed recently that you have litters planned. A past history of a learning curve dating back a number of years ago wasn't something I even knew about.

My dog is a rescue...and I can say that if we get another dog, it will be a rescue, too. I love to hear about success rescue stories and love to see dogs finding new forever homes and getting a second chance.
But... it should also be clear that responsible breeding is needed for the future of dog breeds. What is wrong with bettering a breed continuously?

I give the same amount of kudos to people who take the time, work, and money to find a responsible breeder as to people who have the heart to rescue!

This is no reflection on you whatsoever. I probably should have made it clear after your comment that I have produced nothing of merit, and that I am NOT the breeder or producer of Penny. I am only her owner, handler, and trainer.

Sadly, from what I have heard her only 2 litters have been disasters.

that may be but the amount of dedication and work redyre puts into her dogs is completely flawless, and the amount of knowledge she has about breeding, and the research she is putting into her future litter put her above most breeders.

True. But, she is planning a breeding with a dog that has DJD. More than one person in the Rott community are VERY against this. She will try and back up her research but frankly IMO there is NO excuse to breed a dog with joint problems. The gene pool of dogs with clean health is too broad, dogs that have all that, and more.

And I wasn't trying to be snide. I DO think it is sad. I just think that alot of the members here think you are currently producing outstanding dogs. Which is not true.

Since this conversation no longer has anything to do with the original topic, I heartily encourage you all to take up the breeding discussion in the breeding forum.

Thanks

Demitrious is right . . .
