Just another difficult breeder moment.

Recently someone made an anonymous, public comment on a FB group about how dogs get returned to me and how that should be a red flag for my breeding program.

Obviously that is a ridiculous statement by someone not confident enough to sign their name to it. Dogs do get returned occasionally, but it is really quite rare. And it isn't always (rarely is) the fault of the dog.

A perfect example is this girl...due to no fault of her own, Mayhem is back to needing a permanent retirement home. She is currently in INDIANA and needs to match with the perfect home who will let her be a silly couch dog, who is an active companion, and maybe shows/does sports for fun.

She is such a sweet girl, loves to cuddle, friendly with other dogs and people. But sometimes folks have a hard time in life and need some extra support. I'm very proud of the ability for Chaland folks to step up and provide that support to one another to help network and get this great girl into a permanent placement. ❤️

Sometimes, when you are on the outside, you miss the context of the situation. Things aren't always what they seem. 🤷‍♀️ I'm always happy to talk about my program, my dogs, and that includes being able to be critical about my dogs, to tell you which litters I have disliked, and which/why dogs have been returned. 🤷‍♀️

So proud of Nick Ruhana and Sophie Strong and a huge thanks to Ireland Sharp and their Florida dog village for beginning Kraken's GCH.

He is at something like 10pts and 2 majors with very limited showing.

This BOB win, in particular, was incredibly special. ❤️

Thank you to the judge for finding Kraken among his such esteemed peers.🙏🙌

Congratulations to everyone who placed last weekend. ❤️
