    @Ninabeana26: I swear websites like this just increase the chances of puppy mills & BYBs. That is so true. This is why it is so important that it is not only responsible breeders that have websites directing people on how to find a responsibly bred puppy but also that responsible owners have websites. Every person can help battle puppy mills by helping other people find a responsible breeder. The more websites are out there directing people to websites like http://www.basenji.org/learn http://kineticbasenjis.tripod.com/Information/Buying_a_Basenji.html http://basenji.org/?q=node/30 http://www.basenjiclubofcanada.com/BCOC-BreedersDirectory.html Any links to the National Club's Breeder Directory and educational websites help to increase the chances that buyers will not go to a BYB or puppymill.

    I just don't get it! He is allowed to keep 500 dogs??? What is with that??? What an awful person to make those dogs live like that. I so hope the dogs are able to be rehomed. Poor little things.

    You all make great points and I agree with you all. BUT I still think the public is adding to the population pet overcrowding, by having intact dogs. This should not in my opinion effect show dogs, as this is a whole other catagory. But, if they can give the distinction to cars, motorcycles, and trucks, why can't they give the distinction to show dogs, pet dogs and the like? I mean, its not brain surgery. I do understand everyone having issues with across the board pet legistation…but I think it can be broken up into sections, and handled according. Again, We need responsible show breeders and this is a totally different sect from the bubba's that just put 2 dogs together.
