Responsible breeders - Peter Loeser -
that I have a dog school, all my time grappling with therapy work of dog and owner as well as animal protection work, which most people find very great and admirable. But the conversation turns to the breeding and then, as in my case on American and Old English Bulldogs, then I reap the optimum case, a sniff, but more often hits me a reproachful look from the can see me then, what does my opponent and with what associated with my hobby and my passion is, "Oh, he does so, the money eyes breeder who to everyone completely irresponsible, his attack dogs "sold off, the males used as deck machinery and females as breeding machines, the poor animals to be periods in any box you joyless existence, which just as long as lasts, as the ejection profitable and the quality is consistent." Should I submit a masked animal rights activists me have, I have tried to explain at a young age often stammering, that even quite reasonable can breed and planned that there are tax treaties and court checks. And if I was lucky and was convincing enough, I was able to smooth the furrows on the animal rights front again. In the worst case, I am, however, in that drawer ended up sitting in all the other breeders already or really bad, I already had an effusion of words to go through me, that is except for the sermon of a pastor from the pulpit, however, such as praise . From there, gradually I was wondering how I could be as old, but where I should be such a bad person and put living things in this world, for which I also ask for money. I peddling quasi family members, where but sit here for so many poor dogs in shelters (and then all the dogs in the southern countries), the hope, too on a nice home in a well-tidy apartment - and in general: you so much ...
hear this know I almost no breeder is something like this. How is it so happened that a breeder in such a bad image is added? As everywhere, where doubtless important educational work is operated, especially in view from the press is often very one-sided. One knows well enough about the fatal attack dog. If a subject that certainly requires the education, for a time in the media floating around, unfortunately little is thought of light it objectively. Of course it was and is really to educate about maladministration in "Dog Ever Multiple" insbesondre recognized since it has been as much a breeder can only with the selection of his breeding stock and then contribute to the character and socialization of the puppies to environmentally safe and emotionally stable dogs these, our living conditions to prepare. But in the minds of most people stuck: "Pedigree = exploitation of a living being for monetary purposes. Just as today, every short-haired and strong dog a dog is Kamp and mangled young children, "At least one must be careful yeah ..." No one would come depending on the idea to pull his child from a Golden Retriever, because now everyone thinks of one-sided reporting, malignancy was based on specific breeds. This will agree with me every dog expert, when I say bites are distributed independently of race, who always wears the blame for such incidents.
So how one defines a good breeder?
deserves a breeder for me the title of "good" when he selects his breeding stock carefully for character and health - which has nothing to do with belonging to certain groups (usually quite the opposite!) Every breeder is well as his morality and has nothing to do with control of an association, so sophisticated that it may be. Where it is necessary to check a sophisticated control system breeder (seen often in associations that their breeds anatomically have grown into the ground) are found but also ways and means to circumvent this and the breeding ground for Vetterleswirtschaft, vitamin b and Co is down. Containing human touch it again, just like everywhere.
The good breeding of puppies and at least a basic knowledge of nutrition, housing and education, about education and disease have a good breeder in flesh and blood have passed. Let him the puppy buyers to educate themselves, even after the dog and buy him in the case of a problem to the side stand. The fact that a puppy even at eight weeks to go on a leash to sounds and smells can be used, car and visit the city behind it and has learned to trust bond to know more people should be self-evident.
next point is the selection of the puppy buyer. Yes, you read correctly! A suitable breeder you've found if this is not sold off his dogs just like fresh milk after the expiration date. A good breeder should know the basis of its experience and traits of a puppy with the purchaser of character search for him right puppy. He also is able to assess whether a dog owner is physically able to manage a full-grown specimen of this breed. Since, the elderly lady smiling no matter how charming or the offspring have fallen in love so much in a cute little puppy ... It's all first-and race-independent and united should just apply to hybrid puppies. A good breeder will never follow behind, for example, a buyer, he does not know a puppy. And notice! - He is ready to hold contracts that regulate housing conditions and return policy. Another tip: Do not be upset if your breeder or a confirmation of by the landlord or the rental agreement can provide to see how the dog ownership will be regulated in your home. Are you then come to a very careful and conscientious copy. Enjoy it. He acts in the sense of your dog.
Reality
I often wonder why no one really gets the idea to ask the breeders of purebred dogs is not the same claims - especially since a lot more hybrids are born and taught as a breed dogs. Sits a half-breed at a shelter he is a poor dog and the former holder the pig. With pedigree dogs will be called immediately after the breeder who is the boar. Here is a double standard. Because a dog is not 50 - but € 1000, - cost € and has haunted this idea through the heads "of the Na has yet earned a fortune - then it will have to take the dog but also at any time! Or ". How could a dog breeder only such a person give a dog? - That is the question I ask myself then. The truth is that no one can recognize a person who does not want to wear his responsibility. No man can be seen to right away, if he is lazy, stupid or ignorant. And a fact that no contracts. I'm still grateful, if I "Ali" call in and say "Hey, you hasch Bidbull?" Or made known immediately if Martin does, "the dog must get at the man!" They are the ones that I can sort out obvious and clear conscience. The rest of the potential dog buyer has good intentions and would not "... niemaaaaaals - but no ..." Of course, do care for their dog until it is approved of old age ... lying in her bed ... with praise must go to heaven. Everyone wants to go to dog school, every one wants a good and loving dog (except Ali and Martin maybe) and is seemingly willing to invest the necessary steps to attention, care and time in his animal. And surely the claim and reality usually far. (Just think of how many people each year want to stop Sylvester with drinking and smoking, eat healthy and exercise regularly in future. However, I fear the economy may have been no significant changes in their sales after New Year's Eve.)
back agreements are a double-edged sword and open people who say-we-once "not successful" were in their educational efforts on the dog, the possibility of its to get rid of in a convenient manner. For indeed, behavior problems are the most common reason that dogs go back again to the breeder. Each breeder is happy if the new dog owners with problems, the agency take into their own hands. From experience we know that people who are unable responsibility to provide not responsible können.Also we take the better in their own hands. Most dogs make allergy and Co / kg needed to act fast so to satisfy those tax reasons that each and every animal shelter animal welfare organization knows.
I would like to illustrate with the example of a two-year-old American Bulldog bitch can go as unhappy a seemingly good placing CARRIED. The dog was up to the age of one year with me, lived in my pack, had been educated and socialized. A family introduced himself and everything seemed to fit: house with garden, dogs experience Child just fine. As in the picture book. What I could not see: the marriage was probably already broken down, for weeks there was between the great strife and terror. Finally separation. The woman was then struck nerves suggested that the Bulldog bitch several times as the second dog, a Yorkshire-pointed and made their position clear. While walking the woman responded completely covered, hit the dog or yelling at them if the other into a dog went. From all this I was of course nothing with until it was too late really. Sometime called the woman who was crying, she would not clear the dog. I tried to help her with advice, offered her individually or in a group with her and the working dog. (No charge, of course, because I'm a good breeder.)
A week later I heard from a friend that the dog was advertised on the internet. I had to call someone and was astounded to hear that the dog for about 200, - € should be given away - off the main thing, so it seemed. I asked the woman to task and brought the dog at the end for 300, - € back. All this, even though it was contractually agreed that the purchase price from 800, - € would get back if she had informed me in advance ... In such a case, so I have a dog in the yard, which are held once individually, since he falls in constant stress and panic, if even a single conspecific comes close. At least four weeks of careful work to stand until all this is executed again bent to some extent. And as long as I live a good measure of anger inside until the dog then I can provide (free) to a good spot - but only to someone who continues my work. This is always a pure stroke of luck, because, of course, is not ready at every corner a dog buyer, who do to a two-year-old bent dog wants, and is also willing to invest time, love and work and can advise. Meanwhile, the dog is again conveyed to me but after a year is now currently have a claim to the house, because this woman is suddenly occurred, they've actually 500, - € too little reimbursement. This story is in the 15 years I worked as a breeder certainly not unique. In fact, I've never get back a dog that was brought up with confidence and kept under appropriate conditions. Of course there are exceptions that cause emergency situations in which real people to make their favorite heavy heart, but they are rare and that can help you every breeder.
Today I can understand one or the other breeders with whom I debated previously heated about whether the often quoted "out of sight - out of mind" is not a responsible People / just such a breeder is unworthy. Granted, not every breeder has my opportunities, and has room enough dogs having to face such problems. Unfortunately, I also met today but still no one who returned the dog to me and I would have been grateful for this opportunity. After several such experiences, I am threatened many times the desire to pass on the joy and I put a hold on me that I'm still suspicious and critical. And frankly, I ask myself in moments like these, what I am doing everything properly. I will no more rich by breeding like any other lovers and breeders. On the contrary, I am happy if at least can cover the costs. Perhaps you will be lucky as a breeder, your partner is not up yet and that, you have now and a dog sitter and can afford to go away sometimes, and it may even be tolerant of your neighbors and your friends understand your spleen. Then they are such incidents even know it ... but put away easily - usually it's different.
But just when I have those days, then I promptly visited a "Meier family," which has taken five years ago a puppy. The report then hours of what has developed into a fine fellow, tell gleam of the little and big adventures with her favorite and her eyes as on the first day. Then I look wistfully longing for my dogs and plan in mind for the next litter. The union, which is of course everything better. The union to find out where each puppy's "Maier family" is. And I secretly hope that still more often a "family Maier" finds its way to me as "Ali" or "Martin".
