On Backyard Breeding

The next time someone asks you what’s so bad about backyard breeding, show them this. My mother got her cats from North Shore Animal League, which does amazing work. The cats, whom she named Isadore Lovey and Baby Girl Viva (clearly, there must be a silly-name gene) are siblings and are both deformed. On the sort-of upside, I recently saw a segment on the news with a pit bull (I think) who didn’t have front legs and walks around town on his hind legs just fine. Dogs are remarkable at adapting.

I could think of something to say to breeders, backyard and otherwise, but it just seems moot. Why? is the only thing I can come up with these days.
