Adolescent Male - Page 5

No problem I had walked away and left the thread until a known person that likes to go after me is stirring inuendos again about me. I have put forth my response and I am done. I ask that my reply to her stands and I will not post further on this thread.

Molly I am really trying not to "take sides" here, so could
you please answer me one straight question:

why would you, an experienced breeder, want Xeph, whose
experience is mainly in handling in the Showring,  to be a
person who whelps her first ever litter by doing it in her home
with your "very valuable" bitch ?  Something just doesn't add
up about that arrangement.


The only reason I got to whelp the first litter I did on my own
was in the breeders home while she was away, and it came
a week early.  My mentor certainly wouldn't have chosen that
to happen, although she did have a lot of confidence in my
abilities by then.  It wasn't even a particularly "valuable" litter,
in terms of bloodlines etc.



Edit:  Sorry Admin, didn't get to see your post until after mine
had been submitted.

Thanks for the pm's everyone.

I hope Xeph and Molly can resolve this so the best interests of the dog are served. I think that's what both of them want in the long run.

Hundmutter - she didn't whelp my litter in her home.  BECAUSE despite the "talk" she likes to describe herself as an experienced breeder - she had never whelped a litter before or raised one.  So the litter was whelped in my home.  I housed this person and her dogs for a full week and mentored her through the process.  Thank goodness I did - she turned out to be completely incompetant in the process and had she whelped the litter on her own without my assistance I'm certain some of the pups would have been lost due to her negligence, laziness and lack of experience.   So at least for that I made the right decision regarding this person.

Thank you for clarifying.
