Overpopulation,,?

Fred2'O Novice Nov 13, 2010, 4:37 PM Views: 1634 Overpopulation,,? Is there really a pet Overpopulation problem? I know Backyard Breeders adds to the shelters problem, what about the Reputable Breeders? I know some good breeders breed their dogs in hopes of having 1 good show dog in a big litter of puppies. What happens to the ones that can't be show dogs? Do any of those puppies contribute to Overpopulation? (This post was edited by Fred2'O on Nov 13, 2010, 4:38 PM)

Fred2'O, IMHO, there's actually no over-population problem, there is a HUGE over-abandonment problem though & it comes from idiots who buy dogs in hopes that they will satisfy a need the animal is never capable of. When you get a dog because you have a GENUINE, REALISTIC need for one, you don't go dump it, you use it till it dies. None of my dogs have ever ended up in a pound, they stay here till they die.
