The woman who sold us our dog just texted me asking if we had him fixed yet. then she asked if she could borrow him for a wk to breed him with her female malamute....Idk how I feel about this...He isnt even in our name yet...and a whole wk?!....advice...he has an appointment to be neutered on aug. 24th

get him neutered!!! that is your dog now and you need to be responsible for him and to mix breeds is just wrong. if something happens to the pups and he is in your name they can come after you. im glad you have him now and you need to get him fixed, hell tell her you had it done all ready and she should back off. please do not give her Mika!!!

.

Agreed. Tell her you already got him fixed. If she knows for sure that he isn't, just say no. "Sorry, he's mine now and we're not going to be responsible for puppies. I don't support mixed breeding or Back Yard Breeders. You gave up rights to him when you gave him to me."

That to me, is seriously messed up. What is the point of mixing the two? Crazy. I don't know what your relationship is with this person but I would never let that happen. My head doesn't wrap around that concept there.

Thanks you guys I told here no and she was all like of course not...She thinks Im against dog breeding and that everyone around here is obsessed with fixing their dogs...Im just like I have no problem with dog BREEDERS breeding dogs not ppl making mutts and mika has bad hips..I dont want two dogs that are going to have hip displasia(sp?) and god knows what else...

You don't owe her any explanations. He is yours. I agree with everyone here. Glad you said "No".

thank you!

Good call on your part! You definitely did the right thing.

thanks!

I have to say, at least you had some sort of connection with the person asking. At the RSPCA Million Paws Walk last year a random stranger walked over to Logan and I and asked if he had been desexed or if she could borrow him.

I mean people clearly don't care about bloodlines or genetic problems when they approach random people on the street for breeding opportunities.

All they care about is money. When are we going to stop treating these wonderful animals as a commodity and make people earn a real living?

all i can say is wow..good for you for doing the right thing and saying no!

Wow, first of all "borrow" your dog for a week! I would never leave him/her with somebody that I don't really know for an entire week! Plus, the fact that she's asking you to borrow him to breed is definitely not cool. I've had SEVERAL people approach me saying that they have a male and if Mya's fixed blah blah blah. She is fixed now, but even when she wasn't I would tell them no that she was.

Good call! Some people have some nerve I tell you!
