I love this chart! Thanks for posting! Both of my girls qualify, and if I'm please by the time they come of age, and find a suitable male, maybe we'll breed. If not we'll spay. But first thing is first with my girls and that's their happiness and health :)

My Pom - nope. My future GSD? (If I get the color I'm hoping for) - nope.

They should add, "have you or are you willing to provide the time and resources necessary to help find forever homes for at least as many dogs who are currently in a shelter or rescue as you will be adding to the population?"

If you breed dogs, you have a responsibility to help those who have been discarded as well.

The people who discarded the dogs are the guilty party....this "logic"could beapplied to humans as well, every one producing children are at fault for all the homeless soles. Mandating rescue removes the altruistic aspect....I have never been "forced" to rescue any of the dogs I,ve saved, but did it because I wanted to.

I wouldn't expect you to accept any of the responsibility.

Keith,

 Using your logic, people purchasing purebred dogs instead of adopting from a shelter would bare some of the responsibility too.

If they're buying them from puppy mills, pet stores, BYB's, etc. they are absolutely part of the problem.  Their money encourages these breeders to continue what they're doing.
