[quote=Anonymous]A reputable breeder will stop breeding when they see lots of the breed in rescue. The breeder I got my first pug from (adopted her as an adult as a retired breeder) did that. My dog had a full litter the first time, two babies and a c section the next time and the last time one baby and a c section with spay. My veterinarian said that’s what a responsible breeder does—max three litters, and stop breeding when they only have small litters and need c sections. The breeder said she usually keeps the dogs as pets when they’re done breeding but this particular one was having a hard time living with five other dogs so she adopted her out so she could have more attention. She said it was really hard but she has thanked me several times over the years for giving her the life she couldn’t. [/quote]
