Terra, I abhor the idea, too.... but would you rather the commercial breeders turn the dogs into the pound, or even kill them when they shut down their business or are told to reduce their dog population? I used to go to horse and cattle auctions as a kid. There were some absolutely FINE animals, and then there were those that weren't. IF Missouri doesn't repeal or make changes in the Prop B that just passed, there will be THOUSANDS of pups that will have to go. Unintended consequences.
