If I answer on the List, I will be starting a huge fight. But I can’t hide 
under a dog food barrel.  I will tell you that if we don’t support ALL 
breeders, we will be going down when ALL breeders go dow

I would not sell a dog to a pet store or allow one of  my dogs to be used in a 
commercial breeding situation.  That is my personal opinion. Substandard 
breeders can be found in 2 dog homes and in 100 dog kennels.

I work with kennel breeders in California that have anywhere from 15 to 75 dogs 
in their kennels.  And there are some commercial kennels are fully staffed, 
socialize their dogs, know their pedigrees, their names.

I love dogs, always have. I’ve had pets from shelters, pet stores and breeders. 
 All were great dogs.  Good breeders are good breeders.

I would never support a petition that would take away the rights of an 
individual to deal with his/her property in any humane manner he/she wishes.

I FIGHT for all of you and get very dismayed when you don’t see how you have to 
fight for yourselves.
