#i just do Not trust people anymore and see a lot of breeders doing shady shit and downplaying issues

[canisitsnotlupus]

starting to think more and more how doodle breeders do everything i am starting to require for a pet dog breeder because i have seen SO MANY companion breeders breed dogs with issues from reactivity to professionals struggle with basics with their dogs.. mmm but doodle breeders out here do fancy websites with 3209843904034 videos and pictures of their dogs at like, cookouts and farmer's markets and running around in a yard and playing with neighborhood dogs and just very basic stuff but it's VIDEO showing like.. the dog isn't anxious around strangers, the dog willingly hams for random ppl at a cookout, the dog willingly plays with strange dogs (and play style!!! it's important when u have sensitive breeds like bcs imo!!), the dog can walk through a farmer's market or home depot and not be fucking weird and u have so many breeders "why do people go to doodle breeders ): what is badass breeder ):" idk karen maybe it's because their websites are not geocities inspired and updated and they have the shit that regular people want like dogs being okay with kids, at cookouts, with strange dogs and the PRICE RIGHT THERE ON THE PAGE. any time i see a dog for sale without a price i assume it's out of my budget. idc if it might not be, i assume, and that makes emailing that breeder soooo unlikely b/c the stigma of asking and stuff. but even if i think 2k is out of my budget i can ATLEAST sit there and.. you know.. budget for it. plus badass breeder talks about this and stuff idk more and more im learning to not trust a single thing a breeder says even ones with large followings (lol thanks BC world) because they. fucking. lie. and want to see videos of it myself. but on the same note but.. flip the coin or w/e hunting breeders do the SAME THING but.. with hunting stuff. their websites might make you think you're trapped in 2005 but you can bet they have youtubes of their dogs working and usually a price right there and pedigrees right there and most of the good ones talk about the dogs settling in the home 'is great with kids' etc. and u can see some videos or pictures that make the trainer in me go !!! of the kid sprawled out on the dog or using it as a horse and the dog has a :D expression so like. really. idk. being able to see evidence of the shit breeders say beyond some letters behind a name is MMM important. like i really dont care about seeing a video of the dog doing an agility run. like yeah it's nice, i guess, i can see jump types, but was that dog muzzled to get up there? did the owners have to ask for every dog to be 30 feet away or the dog reacts? was the owner hyper aware of the dog because if someone got too close, the dog would bite? and i saw that ALL THE TIME at agility (because i also had a dog like that!) so just shots of the dog doing a run? not good enough. show me the dog settling in the crate at the event, being walked between runs, etc. prove to me the dog isn't a basket case outside of work pls
