I know everyone was told, dont breed, we dont want people wanting a puppy just because they are stuck at home.
I have no idea where it is now. but at the time I asked.. Do our dogs know because there is a pandemic they are not allowed to die of old age or accident until its over?

I am getting phone calls on average three to five a week, some days that many in one day.
And every one of them is to replace the dog they have just lost or finally getting over the loss after a year or so and yep there are no dogs to be found.
how how did that come about? its not just because of the pandemic
the call has been out not to breed an ankc litter for decades unless you wish to replace for yourself.
nothing is more unethical or irresponsible than to breed a litter for sale as pets.

As for letting anyone have a main register pup and keep members in the ANKC?
Most of the breeders are dead end kennels, Never sell a main register pup.
Over 20 years ago I loaned one of mine to a “friend” to breed a pup with the option of a second litter if she was not happy with a pup from the first.. Sooo she bred two litters. 7 in each litter and sold every one of them on limit register. and they were 2000 pups 20 years ago. so she pocketed $24,000 and bought a car and imported a pup instead.
I was supposed to get a pup from each litter and I did. but as she had first choice and each time she said there were two she was deciding between I had to settle for 3rd choice. So I was pretty pissed off when I learned she had limit registered every one aside from my two 3rd choices and sold them all as pets?
yep there are some interesting people that are ankc “breeders” and think they are the perfection of ethical and responsible.
But dont worry.
The government is granting breeding licences to commercial puppy farms to fill the massive gap there now is between the hundreds of thousands of people who would love a pet.

I just find it hilarious that although no one should be allowed to be an ankc member if they are a “puppy farmer” yet if you are inspected by the rspca for compliance to the “POCTA for breeding dogs and cats” which is minimum by law you must comply with.
What is this “POCTA” read it and you realise, our government in NSW, who made it law, is the minimum standard for a puppy farm.
The difference of course is although an ankc member is actually a legal puppy farm. They dare not breed pets for joe public. that would be unethical and irresponsible and hated by your fellow members.
So it is up to the real puppy farms to gear up and meet the demand.
The ankc have seen this coming for years. or they would not have published this
