You both said it all. I was lucky in getting some awesome dogs from my 
breedings and due to financial reasons I decided to quit breeding for 
awhile.. ( I was very fussy where my pups went and kept a few too many). Now 
I hesitate to breed as there are so many dogs out there ending up in rescue. 
I have looked at getting a rescue but you know I still want that beautiful 
show quality dog... Even if I dont show it..I could show it but might not 
breed it. Now is that ego or what? At my age not sure I want to chance my 
puppies going to homes that arent the best.
