Happy Easter from my love bunnies to all of you! 🐣

Happy birthday to the Molly and Asher puppies - Lily, Ivy, Sadie, W***y, Hank, Bogey, Oakley, Maverick, Nobi, and Winnie (tomorrow)! You babies sure made Christmas magical last year! I’m so happy that they have all found amazing, wonderful homes where they’re so spoiled! My favorite thing is watching all of these babies’ adventures and seeing how they grow with their families! They are so loved! 🥰

3 years ago today we brought miss Molly home! 💙 She has been the sweetest girl and since then has put in countless hours of therapy work, had her own puppies and been an amazing mama! So proud of this sweet girl and all she’s accomplished in the last 3 years! Happy gotcha day baby girl! 💙

My purchase of a well bred purebred dog does not condemn another dog to death.
My purchase of a well bred purebred dog does not result in an uptick in the shelter dogs.
My desire to have a dog with predictable temperament from a healthy line does not result in another dog not getting adopted at the shelter.
My careful research on the most responsible breeders who meet all requirements is not the problem. It's not what you should be mad at.
It's not who you should blame.
I am not the one who irresponsibly brought these dogs into this world and left them in a shelter. Responsible breeders aren't the ones bringing these dogs to animal shelters either.
It's my home, my life and my choice what kind of dog I want to bring in. Maybe I need a working dog, sport dog, show dog or just a companion dog of a certain breed that suits me best.
Whatever reason I choose to support a reputable breeder, it will not send an animal protection dog to death.
A breeder who does health tests, temperament tests and titling of their dogs does not contribute to the number of stray dogs.
The number of stray dogs in the world is a problem, but it's not a problem made worse by reputable breeders or those who buy from them.
Your neighbor who gets a "purebred" dog without papers because they're cheap is contributing to the problem.
Your friend who spontaneously bought a puppy from Petland is contributing to the problem.
The person scrambling to pump out the hottest designer mix ASAP is contributing to the problem.
Your relatives who have to get their dog covered once, "so she can experience what it's like to be a mother" or because "she's such a good/cute/sweet girl" are contributing to the problem.
Your old school mate who bought a working dog with lots of energy without taking the time to research its needs and character who ultimately sees it doesn't fit his lifestyle is the problem.
A reputable breeder offers lifetime support. A serious breeder would never allow their dogs to end up in a shelter from the start.
It's understandable to be angry about the number of homeless dogs in the world, but if you look closer, you'll find that your anger is misplaced.

Gotta love a puppy pile! 🥰 Most of the puppies have gone to their new homes and I’ve been in contact with each of the families and all have settled in nicely! It’s always bittersweet to let them go but I know they are so loved by their families and bringing so much joy into their lives 🥰

Wait for it… that smile 🥰

Did you know… newborn puppies spend 90% of their day (22 hours) sleeping. The other 2 hours are spent nursing. There is such rapid growth and development at this age which all happens whike they sleep! 🐾
