A comparison between a good breeder and a BYB might help some people

http://www.dog-play.com/breedercomparison.htm

that is a great list & saw traits of Tico's breeder in both columns.

I thought I asked the breeder I got Tico from a ton of questions before & during his sale, and still ended up with issues. I'll probably never be able to buy another puppy because I will be sooo overly cautious of where it's coming from!

Miellie's breeder also has traits in both columns. I can't decide if she's a BYB or not.

After reading that list I may be classified as BYB if I breed Miellie!

interesting...zoey came from a breeder that advertised in the paper but didn't fit much more of the criteria for a byb... bambi's breeder was definitely backyard i knew that when i bought but wanted to save her from her situation...she had a double herinia and the breeder wasn't willing to pay for the surgery ***slaps forehead***
lily and mia both come from reponisible breeders. they both show their dogs and all have ch lines in their pedigrees. they both had health guarantees and mia's is even more extensive than most.

for those that can't find the link it was just moved and i did a search and located it
