I strongly believe if someone is supporting a breeder then that breeder should be the best that it can be and the breeder should be producing the very best puppies that they can
My choosing to support reascue is because I am trying to help clean up the mess people have made. It is not the fault of the puppies that they have been produced and they have the same right as any other dog to a happy life
I know people disagree with me but I do not feel in any way I am enabling people to continue breeding by taking on the dogs I do
That is my decision based on my beliefs
If you are truly against me rescuing then I feel sick that a dog lover can feel that way
If you are just using that to try and point score and discredit my oppinion then I feel very sorry for you
But I am also fed up of constantly being attacked - on a dog lovers forum - becuase I choose to rescue
Ive had many rescues, dogs and Cats, and Rabbits.

OH used to be a bit of a stud muffin - but now just the "muffin" bit is more appropriate, bearing in mind his spreading girth!! You would adore Winkle, she is absolutely wonderful, even I say that who don't like cats, loving, affectionate, never bites or scratches, just like a dog really

You have managed to turn this around from breeding, to you rescuing

I think the problem is , as others have pointed out, you make a point of "telling" this forum, that no breeder is good enough in your opinion , and because you rescue, you are better than those who buy from a breeder.
You may argue that is not the case, but it seems others DO take it that way.
You are NOT being attacked because you choose to rescue, neither are the dogs that end up in rescue, dont really know how you have come to that conclusion .
