Štěňata pro slávu? Ano nebo Ne...

Puppies for Fame? Yes or No. . .

As I lay here with my sore back and swollen ankle, I am thinking about something that has been bothering me for a long time and I want to share it with you because I think it is needed...

It exists the law for healthy and successful puppy raising? No. Is there a moral? Yes.

More and more I meet people and their puppies who say that raising puppies is another success on the list. They also say that the level is known by the price of money. I see that raising puppies is becoming some kind of phenomenon to check off another success on the list just for the sake of showing off more and more for the envy of others. But I think that this approach is very bad, even evil. Personally, I find it completely stupid.

I don't want to go into detail here about how things are in foreign countries, or how things are here in the Czech Republic. People often ask me about my articles,.. they ask why, they ask ways and they ask how to change it, that they have no chance. You know, chances don't come to you by themselves, you have to make them.

I'm just as empty-handed as you are, but the difference is that I don't throw words through a filter into the trash, and I don't create my actions only for selfish purposes. I don't know, like you, whether what I do will appeal to someone, but if it does, it makes sense, do it too Don't talk, but act.

Now back to my topic: Puppies for Fame? Yes or No. . .

Why yes and why not? Let's say it out loud and don't be afraid to heard the gossip.

As I wrote, I often come across statements that seem very stupid to me, but judge for yourself what you think about it.

Today is a time when fame is considered the only possible success to make your way in society. Unfortunately, this is a lie that can feed beginners or only those who live off fame. Beginners are drunk by their keepers who do the same. Those who live by fame often sacrifice themselves for the fact that life is olny about fame and thus destroy others in any way.

Not everyone lives by fame, but unfortunately I hear it more and more often, so I think it's important to inform and dwell on it in my thoughts and actions..

You get a dog, get to know the shows and what each of your friends is like before you get into the ring with them. All peaople are sooo lovely, but in ring... the same?. . .

Victory is like a disease that you either control or it controls your life. And so you listen to the system that drives you more and more and you waste your life, gossip because everyone does it and feel like the most successful of all. Your dog knows nothing but the cage and even if he tries to show you his dog attitude, you will always yell at him and the dog will eventually give up. When you have a list of titles that won't fit on any of your walls in the house, you start health tests and woe to whoever has more than you.

You think you have to add more in the highest numbers of these lists. . . What are these lists? Success lists that rule your life. Do they have that much value?.. Do you breed the best puppies in the whole world.. Your level is measured by your lists and you don't look at getting information about pedigrees, puppies and you don't care at all about what is important. Why? Because being the best in everything is your only purpose in life, because having a list of titles from shows and a list of the number of health examinations ranks you among the responsible and, above all, the most successful future breeders. You talk bad about other breeders and your main club and it seems normal because you are so honest. You missed one thing, you are a victim of the fame system you think according to.

Every newbie who is starting out sees himself in this and if the breeder guides him in this way, it seems normal to him. But do you think this is really normal?...

Then the possibility is that you do everything conscientiously, but your club and the breeders around have this fame syndrome and no one advises you, no one listens to you. You want to breed your first puppies and all that you know is that the cover dog agrees. You will do agree too and do it. You are conscientious, but no one trained you, no one can do it, but everyone says they are the best and that they envy each other.

Please consider whether raising puppies is really a feat to add to your bucket list.

Are you ready to perform the mating and take responsible care of the future mother dog? Are you ready to take responsible care of your puppies? Are you ready to spend all your money, stay up all night and have your hands full of love for your mother dog and her little puppies? Are you ready to accept that your puppy may be born substandard or sick or with a defect? And then what are you going to do? Do you think it's right to kill, for example, a puppy that can't hear?.. No puppy is a tool, you know that? Are you willing to say NO, because my puppy is not for a chain, because my puppy is not a tool for fame to live only in a cage, because a child's toy must not have a beating heart?.. Do you still believe that money determines the level of your fame?...

And are you ready to say NO to a system that forces you to have a sick mind for people's achievements?..

Do you realize that your actions determine what kind of person you are and that raising puppies is an real achievement on your next list? That raising puppies with healthy genes, which are ready for symbiosis with the new owner in his home and the snares of the world and which meet the standard of the breed and which are raised with love and responsibility is a real success? Not the success of fame, but the success of life? Do you realize that the level is not calculated according to money, but that we all have the same level?.. the levels are just a game of lies, but the essence breeding of puppies is the miracle of life. Do you know it?..Do you realize that your thinkingdoes he live only on you and not on others?

If you answer yes, start with self-realization. If you answer no, think about why and please realize that your dog is your life and that his life is you. Therefore, be responsible for your decision to raise puppies and never let fame and its list consume you into nothingness. .

Do you have someone with you who always helps you when you need it or just someone who doesn't answer your phone at night? Do you make your own decisions about your actions and your puppies, or do you obey the orders of another person? Is someone manipulating you just to show off at your own expense? Do you know the main reason WHY you wanted to realize your puppies?. . .

Are you ready for bad words about your puppies being ugly as monsters and having a variety of diseases? Do you know that some mean breeders will train new buyers on how terrible your breeding is just so they can sell their puppies to shows themselves? Are you ready to sacrifice your puppies or fight for them?..

Your puppies and the whole dog world have no idea what the world of these people is like. Dogs just know they want their master and his time. You decide how they will live and why they will look at the world through their eyes. But you made the decision and what kind of life they will have depends only on you. Dogs don't care about fame, they just want to be there for you, they want you NOT your lists!!

Breeder is not just a word, Breeder is a Breeder and a caregiver in one. The breeder only cares about the welfare of his animals, not what anyone says. A breeder is not a businessman, he is a father and mother. Do not ask him to think of you as a king: the kings, in his house, are his animals, and you are not his client, you are the future father or mother of his puppies. The breeder has a soul and a conscience. Do you know it?..

Thank you for even reading. Breed development does matter and should never matter on lists of fame. A successful dog is one that knows love, knows nature, has a loving home. The kind of dog that wins at the show only for its own size, the kind of dog that always has healthy genetics for future generations. The kind of dog that will lick your face despite being a rare asset to the breed, shows and breeding. Such a dog whose owner knows that lists are not the main thing, but dedication, knowledge and reason is the best combination for a breed that thrives.

And do you also know that the Lists of Fame in no way determines a litter full of champions and that it has absolutely nothing to do with the genetics of healthy breeding?

Please think. . . . . 🐾👍
