Just seen the most beautiful text here we go, how to reach to respect breeders :
CLIENT: how much is this puppy?
BREEDING: from 3000
CLIENT : what ?? it's way too expensive!!
BREEDER: what do you think would be a good price?
CLIENT: no more than 500
BREEDING: I'm sorry but I wouldn't go back to the grocery store for so long
CUSTOMERS: you breeders over price.
BREEDER: I am sorry you see it this way, why don't you try it yourself?
CLIENT: But I've never done it!
BREEDER: for 100 I can teach you how to do it, and in addition you will have the knowledge to do it again.
CLIENT: Closed deal!
BREEDING: to start you will need a female, minimum cost 2500 and a male, minimum cost €2500. There is also their food for 100/200 for 2 weeks (at least for two if you want more double it) and vet visits, minimum cost 100-200 per visit per dog
CUSTOMER: But I don't have that much money...
BREEDING: for 1500 you can foster one of my dogs for 1 year and then keep a puppy. Obviously, you will pay the cost.
CUSTOMER: It's a lot of money but oh well.... I accept the support.
BREEDER: ok so I have a female puppy due next week. Take a week or two because we will be spending it with the dog all day and night waiting for work to start.
CLIENT: one week ?? it's way too much time for me! I have to work, but that's ok I'll sacrifice time.
BREEDER: yeah, me too. So bring thermometer, tapex, latex gloves, sanitizer, absorbent tissues, scissors and string, heating lamp, crib, blankets, adequate food for breastfeeding mothers, breast milk in case of emergency, scale....
CUSTOMER: But I don't have all these things!
BREEDER: for 500-700 you can buy them.
CUSTOMER: but just like that I don't have anything left.
CUSTOMER: Ummm .... You know, I thought it might be better if you did. I'd rather pay you than to do all that effort and especially the expense.
BREEDER : Wise decision.
For us breeders there are no holidays, while you go to the sea without worries in the summer, we have to look after our dogs.
THIS IS THE REALITY
When you choose a professional you don't only pay for the puppy but also:
knowledge
Tools
experience
love
Time
Professionalism
sacrifices
etc etc etc etc etc
.. Support breeders no matter what breed they breed. ❤️ ©️
