up on them ,breeding dogs is not wrong,as my girls got older I stopped breeding them,went to my younger ones.I am now out of the business and I kept 9,from 13 yrs to 3yrs,I treat them wonderful,they live in the house with us,they sleep with us,they are well cared for and they go to the vet when they need to.Don't be so harsh about it,each one of us has our own opinion on how we do with our animals.What kind of world would it be if we all did the same thing. > why did you breed them melody.... i notice the word > SOLD them... no trouble > selling them.
