Totally agree as far as getting the message across to people about where to obtain their pups from goes.
But on the other hand, I very much doubt Toby came from a reputable breeder considering he was given as payment for a debt by a breeder who had several breeds in his kennels
I think it's important to remind people that rage is quite rare. If I had listened to people I would have been scared to rescue Toby, who came close to being put to sleep at only six months old
.
Yet it is hard to imagine a soppier dog. He is in love with my children and spends most of his life lounging over them.
Apparently there is another golden cocker in an Irish pound, they are negotiating getting him out this week. But the pound would only rehome him where there were no children under 16 simply because he is a golden cocker. He has shown no signs of temperament problems whatsoever. Yet if they have a retriever or Bernese, or any other breed that rage has been associated with, I doubt they make rulings like this :x
