It goes on and on every year. I think some of the breeders should shoulder part of the blame by not ensuring that the pups go to the correct homes. A friend of ours was abreeder of Cocker spaniels and she actually would refuse to sell Golden Cockers to people who had young children because she would tell prospective buyers that Goldies were generally more highly strung . Many would be's who had been refused would actually end up sending somebody else along just cos the potentail owners wanted. Our friend by the way was a breeder of champion dogs and exhibited every year at crufts and was an expert in training dogs as well.
