I was browsing through a website of a breeder in my area last night and the longer I read, the more I found myself shaking my head and kinda wondering if these people were for real! any thoughts? Here are some examples of things that kinda made me go, "huh?"
"Born on our leather sofa, right in the comfort of our living room, our dogs are socialized from day one..." that's kinda gross
"Our poodles are bred to our personal standards. We do not breed for what is popular today, rather for what we think are the best qualities of the standard poodle--and we always will." wow, who made them the experts?! and what about breed standard?
"Our puppies are given constant supervision 24 hours a day for the first 3 weeks of their life." kinda hard to believe isn't it? they currently have puppies from 4 or 5 different litters! that's a lot of pups to be watching 24/7
"A puppy trained not to bark, bite too hard, or jump up". whatever!?
"A puppy handled every 15 minutes 7 days a week for the first 3 weeks of their life." SERIOUSLY! do people actually believe this crap?! wow
There is no mention (that I could find) about any health testing on their breeding stock. Big red flag in my opinion. Also, they don't groom puppies faces prior to sending them home, but they do perform spay and neuter BEFORE pups go home (Pediatric spay/neuter) ...
what's ironic to me as well, is that the TV show "Animal Planet" was there to film a documentary a few months ago... so the general public is being told these are good people to get a puppy from (with NO Health testing!)
Their Red Standards are priced at $2600. This is a pet quality puppy!
Nuts if you ask me :crazy:
