    All about what you're putting out there, how you're representing it, and your intentions. But you can't be putting multiple litters on the ground, all for sale, year round and claim you're not a peddler. Game dogs and curs can be peddled alike.

    yeah i feel like as long as your not in it for the money your ok. like myself i havent had a litter in 3 yrs i have two dogs now i cant wait to hook up but i dont have no room on my yard and when i do breed im keepin two males wish i could keep a whole litter but i dont have the space or the money but i will try and let other folks that i know get the others if i can that way at least i know there in good responsible hands. i will sell to a stranger as long as they know somebody i know that can vouch that there good people. i feel responsible for the pups i raise cuz i had a hand in there creation and that means something too me.

    No official number,dog selling is dog peddling IMHO,just make sure what you peddle is good and I have no problem with it. Produce good dogs should be the goal.

    imo, when your soul motivation becomes filling your wallet, then the #'s are irrevalant and you're a peddler
     
  8. Nice answer !

    Like GH said, IMO there's no certain number that makes you a peddler. IMO peddling is more of a state of mind attitude than the actual number of pups.

    Ive sold a few, but im still in the hole for the feed, meds, housing, etc..., my grand paw never would sell a dog, always gave them away, but he would buy one in a heart beat. He just puzzled me over that.

    When cash means more to you than your dogs' well being. Simple as that. No number involved. If someone sells an entire litter and keeps none of them, that's a big tip-off, also.

    I suppose "well being" can be somewhat subjective here lol

    Was he a church going man. Lots of the older folks believed it to be a sin to put a price on a dog. Or maybe he felt if it wasn't worth him keeping he couldn't in good consciousness sell it. So he gave them away.

    Peddlers sell for the Money. They will also talk a dog up to make it apear more than it is.

    For me it is a simple definition. You sell something for a living you are a peddler. This is not a bad thing in itself. There are both good honest peddlers and dishonest bad peddlers. In our dogs it had become a derogatory name but I don't see it that way. To me a peddler is simply someone who sells something to make a living. I do like pistolas interpretation. Lol

    For the most part LW, I agree. Say somebody has a litter every now and then but doesn't keep not one pup, he's a full blown peddler IMO.

    yeah if you aint trying or dont have room for at least one or two pups then wtf is the point of breeding cuz you cant keep any of your work.
