[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Breeders create more dogs and we already have more dogs than we can take care of.  Breeding more dogs is irresponsible at best.  I've read that approx. 1.2 Million dogs are euthanized each year.

Please don't use breeders.  [/quote]

This.  Reputable breeder or not, we don't need more new dogs.  That's the whole point.[/quote]

So you'd rather have a system where new dogs come entirely from bad and unethical breeders?[/quote]

No, we'd rather have a system where there are no unwanted, abandoned, mistreated dogs.  Let's get all the dogs we can homes instead of breeding more dogs.  [/quote]

People keep missing the point that we don't need anymore NEW dogs. I'm starting to wonder if they're being deliberately obtuse about it. [/quote]

Yes, I didn't want to be mean and say so to him/her, but either that poster is very stupid or is just pretending to be.  [/quote]

You are the ones who are being obtuse, unless you're actually advocating for a complete end to all dog ownership within a generation of dogs (which is possible; I believe that's the position of some more radical dog rescue people). Maybe you actually are advocating for an end to all dog ownership, in which case I don't really have anything to say to you because I think that's outright silly. Otherwise, you're basically arguing for a system in which unethical breeders continue to thrive so you can continue to rescue, privileging your own desire to rescue over the health of dogs.[/quote]

Until there are no more dogs to be rescued, there should be no dog breeding, period. Why is this so hard to understand?[/quote]

Because I don't want to support unethical breeders, which is what you are supporting when you take this position. I don't support unethical breeders, you obviously do so you can keep rescuing. Not a position I want to take but you do you. [/quote]
