I think that mediocre breeders count on people's ignorance and they can "rightfully" do so since so many costumers are soooo uniformed about what they should look for and what is the correct price-performance correlation.
Puppy seeker sees that of 40 breeders there are 35 that ask 1,500 $ and think that than it is the price for a poodle puppy. They than see that some charge 2000 or even 2,500 and think "Oh my, that 1,500 is a real deal " !!!! LMAO They have NO idea what one 1,500 $ that comes from reputable kennel is absolutely of different quality than one that comes from BYB breeder. They see a cute face of available pup and that is all they are looking for
hwell:. And so they pay... and so the BYB can do it LOL ...and who cares if one if 200 callers actually asks about testing - they will sell pups anyway :doh: And how many people actually know that every puppy has a different temperament too ?????? I would guess 0.05 % : ((( How many ever heard of a "contract" and how it should look like ????
So, as much as those breeders are at blame, general public is too ! They are willing to pay that price and "who cares about papers" they love their pups anyway - of course one loves any puppy - that IS NOT THE POINT !!!! By keeping those BYBs in business one is doing GREAT disservice to any breed of dog :fish:
I am really surprised that reputable dog breeders do not work more on public awareness campaigning ...or maybe many do not want too many question asked either :rolffleyes:
