You all need to stop indulging in self righteous hate for licensed animal breeders. I get it, but your anger is misplaced.
Think about it for a second. If you banned licensed animal breeding, do you really think people will stop buying and producing pure bred animals?
If you think things are bad now, you should look at what animal breeding looks like before it was regulated. Banning it outright will only create a black market who's only incentive is to bred for grotesque traits with even less regard for animal welfare.
The majority of modern licensed breeders are working to undo decades of fucked up animal breeding by reintroducing healthy traits while preserving marketable ones. Not to mention breeders are necessary for producing dogs who can be trained as guide dogs and medical alert dogs.
The problem lies with people who shop and don't adopt. Don't blame licensed breeders for trying to temper the grotesque demands of animal shoppers. Whether or not you ban it, animal breeding will continue and it's only a matter of how much more animal abuse is involved.
