The rescue centres will test their temperament and you can get a nice natured puppy / dog from them just like the one you have. My Sam is an angel and im glad to give him a loving home now 
Why make more when there are SOOO many desperate for a home? |
Exactly what I keep saying.
The only excuse to breed when we have rescue centres bulging at the seems is for breed improvement and to maintain breeds by breeding from the best selected (for health temperametn adn breed type) individuals, and for dogs for specific working purposes.
Dogs should not be bred from simply because they can reproduce.
