Don't twist my words Ginger. Lee mentioned routine vet care. It followed
Sue's post trying to explain her concerns (valid IMO) with short cuts. If
there isn't money in the bank for a c-section, don't breed a litter.
If a person can't afford routine vet care, I wouldn't sell them a puppy.
Would you? It's ok for BYBs though?
See, that's where I agree wholeheartedly with Sue not wanting to align
herself w/ millers and BYBs. (And the presence of a few show ribbons doesn't
exempt a person from slipping right into those categories, sad to say.)
I'm sorry a prohibition on breeders doing their own c-sections has to be in
the new PA law; It would never occur to me to try to do a c-section, but
apparently it has occurred to others, so it does need to be legislated.
I have no problem with folks doing their own vaccinations, (I do mine and it
is now and will remain perfectly legal, with the exception of rabies which
always had to be administered by a vet.) I DO have a problem w/ using
medicines and wormers meant for cattle and horses for dogs.
The way I was raised, I learned early that there pride in taking care of
your own and doing it well. That's not being elitists, where I come from,
it's
just called "responsible".

There was just recently on this list a discussion of "elitism"... Because
someone gives their own vaccinations or does their own worming suddenly they
are a bad owner and shouldn't be allowed to own dogs. That is definitely
elitism!
