This was not to offend anyone It is facts done ine a sick but humorous way. I just thought I would pass it on. Some of you take things too seriously and those of you that know me I have been around here for quite awhile. I am not against breeding just against those breeding for the wrong reasons. I am not perfect I made many mistakes until I was educated on the breed now i own upto my mistakes and do what i can to let people know the true reasons for breeding, making a purchase and showing. Some people just don't want to hear truth or facts however if i can make one difference its a bonus. this breed is beautiful and i am sure you would also want to preserve it.

Here is what is under the BREEDERS section!

I don't think this is sharing knowledge- this seems like anti-breeding to me. Maybe this belongs in chat, but not here!

Just a quick note , this forum used to be open only for people breeding or intending to breed to prevent arguements. It was decided to have it open for all members with 100 posts or more. So remember to keep your cool when discussing matters like this.

I don't think the list is funny but it does point out some very crucial reasons why any ol person shouldn't breed their chihuahua.

I'm sorry if I got a bit heated. It's just kind of upsetting to see such things displayed as if they are funny. I've seen firsthand loosing puppies, loosing mothers, etc. It's not funny at all and these things happen to all breeders, even the best ones. It's just such a very very sad thing to loose any chi, I can't begin to laugh about it.

I say by all means try to educate, Janiesbabies, that was my original point. Most people would be turned off by this list and not try to learn for fear of further scorn and rudeness, rather than ask the questions and take the time to really study and understand the risks and responsibilities of breeding to make an informed decision.

I didn't think it was too heated yet but discussions like this can sometimes turn heated, so I just wanted to drop in and remind everyone to stay calm.

I agree.
