Because you have shed a bit of light on my side of the story. We may have to both unsubscribe! You see I breed and I have sold online before but I certainly do not run a puppy mill. My dogs have complete freedom and are house pets and sleep with us at night in our bed even. But I interview and talk to potential owners of my puppies several times before they are considered 'adoptive parents'. I still get emails from all over regarding the outcome of some of these wonderful placements. My dogs have been selected as service dogs...one with the deaf,another with the visually impaired and the one I am so proud of a service dog to an autistic child.

My name is Marky and I joined the list awhile back (couple of weeks) I did a brief note, but have been mostly reading posts. I am writing because I have debated with myself over this shipping thing. I do have a new chihuahua pup..which I unwisely found on line...at least my good sense tells me it was unwise. He is wonderful, very healthy, came out of the plane calm, happy and ready to come home with me. He is 14 weeks and pretty well house broken (uses a cat box). He gets along with my 7 yr old chihuahua and my 5 year old rescue French Bulldog...he and my old cat have bonded. I have NEVER even considered getting a dog on line before, but for some reason when someone at work was looking at this little guy on line I just had to have him. This has NEVER and I repeat NEVER happened to me before. I have had many dogs in my 55 years and they have all been purchased from 'reliable breeders', or rescues. Oh, I forgot, I did purchase my first chihuahua from a 'backyard breeder' who had purchased a breeding pair from a 'reliable breeder...a show breeder' who was retiring and moving to Arizona...sold all her dogs through a newspaper add in the Sac. Bee. Go figure.. I say all this to note that two of the Boston Terriers I paid a large sum of money for, from a person who is very active in the breed and even has her name on national club officer lists, had some serious health issues. They both died of Congestive heart failure very young...Broke my heart to say the least...also cost many many dollars in vet bills. The before mentioned chihuahua never went to the vet, except for brief checkups, and unfortunately when a stray dog jumped my fence and attacked her on the front porch. My point is you do the best you can, make the best choices you can. I will probably buy my next dog from a 'reliable breeder' ...but I choose not to judge others who do not. I DO NOT advocate PUPPY MILLS...that is a whole differant story. The woman I got my new puppy from has called once, sent two e-mails to check of Walter... in 3 weeks. I never heard from the 'reliable breeder' once my check cleared. Also, not that it is the most important thing... I paid $800. for this pup....Local people wanted $1300. to $2000. for pet pups. I have been around long enough to know that if you have 3 pups and you sell them for $1000. plus, even if your dog had a cesearn and had ultra-sounds...it did not cost over $3000. in vet fees....unless she speant time in the doggy ICU. I don't think this is a bad thing..just a true thing...but SOME people DO make a fair amount of money breeding their show kennel.. pet quality dogs. If you hate me now I will unsubscribe from the list....this is my story...true as true can be....marky On 11/6/07, dasha <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> net> wrote: Yes, that is what I have been saying all along.

So, they sell and we buy, its a business. We just have to use some caution and try to find what we're looking for in breeder and in dog.
