Well if the above has all been done and whatnot with said litter then by all means I agree breeder has the right to charge whatever they want without the morality police saying word one...problem is MOST people selling unregistered dogs out of accidental litters haven't done all of the above or even part of it...THIS is where things turn more into a money issue than a "for the breed" issue in my eyes. Then again to each his own etc... I myself chose NOT to sell puppies out of an accidental litter for that much money. I'm not sure I'd sell unregistered pups out of a proven litter for that kind of cash either unless I had a whole fricken line of dogs and more success. But then again I'm really not even looking to break even with my dogs at this point. As a starting point it'd be nice to at least get HALf of what I put into my own breeding dogs...

Like I said to each his own and you're the one who got defensive when morality was questioned as far as what the public will pay for irresponsibly bred puppies...nobody pointed a finger in your direction at the very FIRST statement nor with this statement if you end up feeling like perhaps a finger WAS pointed at you then maybe there's some other issue involved there. I can guarantee you that I'm not trying to create an issue with you over this.

Any issue I have with you has NOTHING to do with what you choose to sell your puppies for, slander and libel are probably the only items on my list I could personally hound you about...however... It is not worth it to me.
