Adopt don’t shop the Mantra of idiots Let’s address this topic because you see Variations of it being represented on Our Facebook on our YouTube okay there’s Always some Special person in the comments that’s Clutching their hearts and you know Talking about the poor dogs in the Shelters and how we’re only contributing To the problem and that nobody should Breed until that problem’s been taken Care of we have such a problem with Homeless dogs in this country that You’ve got rescues importing hundreds if Not thousands of dogs every year from Third world countries okay dogs of Unknown Health dogs of unknown Temperament well let’s not say that They’re so unknown they’re pretty known They’re they’re known to the extent that Our country has had to pass laws about Importing dogs from third world Countries where they’ve basically banned The importation of dogs from a lot of These countries completely because it Was such a problem these retail rescues Importing you know thousands of dogs With all sorts of weird diseases and Parasites and you know health problems And and not to mention the behavioral Problems listen I’m a professional dog Trainer I see the behavioral problems Firsthand when people import feral dogs From other countries here okay so so
Don’t tell me about all the homeless Dogs and shelters when they’re actually Importing more dogs than any retail Breeder ever Imports okay don’t compare Dogs from shelters to dogs that are the Result of many many generations of Forethought of careful intention of Testing right we’re not just producing Dogs random the dogs that my clients Need the dogs that the organizations That my business serves needs are not Random dogs they’re not the product of Random chance they’re the product of Multiple generations of careful Testing careful evaluation right careful Breeding this is not just something that Happens okay German Shepherds that we Produce here the malwas the herders They’re not just random chance all right And to compare it to you know the Product of a shelter right which is Basically random chance which is bad Decisions right to compare what we’re Doing here or what any working breed or What their salt is doing to that is an Absolute fallacy look at this horse okay I don’t know if you guys can see yeah You can see the horse okay this is An Andalusian okay now you can buy a horse For 500 on Kijiji Now I didn’t want a horse for five not Because I have a problem with horses not Because you know I’m an elitist or Anything like that I wanted something
Specific I wanted a specific set of Character traits right that’s a Three-year-old Andalusian stallion I wanted a very specific set of Character traits I wanted structural Traits and I wanted character traits so I went to a horse that came from a Reputable breeder he is the result of Probably hundreds of years at this point If you know anything about the Andalusian breed hundreds of years of Careful testing forethought and Intention Why would I go get something random when I could have that Right now look if I had unlimited land And I wanted to you know help a horse in Need sure I’d do it but horses well I Mean for me they have function just as Dogs do they have a use they have a Function they have a purpose we need Specific traits we need specific Structural health and behavior traits in The animals that we use And going to something where you don’t Know any of that stuff because it is the Product of random chance Right or bad decisions it’s it’s Irresponsible so this adopt don’t show No adopt don’t shop is basically saying Reward bad decisions Reinforce bad choices Create a market for dogs of no Particular breeding no particular
Testing and no particular purpose again I’ve owned rescues I like I like all Dogs any dog deserves to be given the Best treatment possible but to pretend That a rescue dog is the exact same Thing as a dog that comes from multiple Generations of intention forethought and Testing for whatever purpose or reason That specific breed exists for is Absolute idiocy it is an absolute mental Deficiency and if you’re one of those Individuals do me a favor close your Mouth research genetics 101 understand Why genetics are important listen dogs Are the product Of a thousand years plus maybe five Thousand no it’s not even a thousand Sorry it’s like five thousand plus years Of of domestication there’s nothing Natural about them we’ve been breeding Them for generations for specific Purposes and there’s nothing wrong with That it’s what’s enabled them to become Such an integral part of our lives and Our society and our culture I love dogs But We need to honor that Purity we need to Honor that intention that has been Happening for thousands of generations Okay so I’m not saying don’t adopt a dog If you have you know if you’re willing To take the risk and you want to do Something nice for an animal in Need by All means adopt a dog but there’s
Absolutely nothing wrong with saying I Want something that’s predictable I want Something that looks a certain way that Acts a certain way and that can most Importantly from my perspective as Somebody that really appreciates working Dogs can fulfill a certain purpose and No you don’t just find that in a random Shelter I’m sorry it just doesn’t happen Okay so personally for me I don’t Actually make money breeding dogs right There are breeders that do they make Money breeding dogs and as long as They’re producing a good product as long As they’re producing strong healthy dogs That are in high demand that can fulfill Various purposes whatever that breed is Bred to do by all means go do it go get It I have no problem with that there’s That’s we live in a capitalistic Society Right value is rewarded if you’re Producing value you should be rewarded Just as the breeder of this horse you Know Charged a pretty penny for that horse And I was willing to pay it because I Wanted the value that that you know Hundreds and hundreds of years of Forethought and intention represented That you know she has a piece of in her Breeding program So I’m not saying don’t adopt a dog I’m Saying understand that it is not the
Same thing okay an adoption is a choice And purchasing from a breeder is a Choice and there’s nothing morally Superior in either Choice all right the Most important thing is you select the Dog that’s right for you your family and Your situation because that is going to Optimize the life of that dog and it’s Going to optimize your life and both of Those things are important how can you Have a good life with your dog and how Can that dog have a good life if he’s in A substandard situation if if you’re not Happy and if he’s not happy okay so I’m All for you know responsible breeding Breeding you know dogs for specific Purposes dogs with predictable health And predictable structure but guess what You know there are dogs that end up in Unfortunate situations not nearly as Much as the the The Virtue signalers on Facebook Instagram or YouTube would have You believe most of those people don’t Know anything about dogs listen they Live that they’re generally pretty Unhappy people that I find in many cases Are pretty shitty human beings and Instead of addressing that they try to Find some meaning and purpose in their Life by championing dogs in the comment Section on various Instagram and YouTube Posts right instead of actually doing Something productive and helping society And helping people but that’s a topic
For another day anyways rant complete I Hope you understand a little bit about Where I’m coming from now as I mentioned Already I don’t actually really make Money breeding I breed for my program Because unfortunately I can’t import Enough dogs to fulfill the needs that my Clients have whether they be individuals Or organizations okay there is a a Strong need for good working dog single Purpose and Dual Purpose working dogs And there are simply not enough dogs That have the quality and the ability That are available either locally or Even internationally so stop the Nonsense you really don’t know what You’re talking about educate yourself Before you start making stupid comments In the section
