Hobby Breeder Vs. Commercial Breeder

Hobby Breeder Vs. Commercial Breeder


There is a lot of debate as to which kind of breeder is out for the betterment of the breed and which breeder is out for money. The hobby breeder will tell you he has only a couple of dogs so therefore he, by definition has more time for those dogs, he must be better. The commercial breeder will tell you he devotes his entire life to the dogs, has no other jobs, often has staff to help him so he must be better. https://www.facebook.com/bambootail/posts/855597941504668?__tn__=-R

I guess I should start by giving my definition of the two breeders. A hobby breeder is one who does not live off the proceeds he makes from dogs. Dog breeding is a hobby for him, not his livelihood. A commercial breeder is one who lives off of the dogs. He, by definition often has many dogs. He will often have a staff of people to take care of the dogs and he survives off of what he can make from his dogs.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1Y_QlLLamw

In my opinion, neither breeder is automatically better. It is more about how each of those breeders takes care of, houses, socializes, trains, tests and proves their breeding dogs that makes them better than the rest. If you have a hobby breeder who keeps his dogs in a backyard with no socialization or interaction, even though he only has a couple of dogs, he is not the kind of breeder you should buy from. This is considered a Puppy Peddler. On the other hand, if a commercial breeder has many dogs, they aren't well kept, they aren't socialized, aren't tested or proven etc...he is also not the type of breeder you want to buy from. This is considered a Puppy Mill- Hongya Cave Kennel or ex Conservation Center .                                    

Whatever type of breeder you decide to go with, make sure they do DNA test of Origin , heart , hips X-ray   and temperament testing, first generation in PEDIGREE MUST BE  Certificated by CKU , then CKU Pedigree can be exported to  National FCI or AKC Pedigree . Dogs with Pedigree made  by ABKC & CCDC are absolutely not same worth as CKU or  FCI Certificated dogs . Russian RKF ( FCI ) Certificated CQd are only  truly pure  if is CKU Certificated 1st generation, all others with ABKC Origin are Hybrid  added irresponsible by RKF (FCI)  without  DNA tests by CKU,  they aren't registered in China to become full member of FCI and this is fact. It's very simple ….  if the Origin is unknown ( Dogs without DNA profile )  such dogs are less worth and they could be mixed with modern western dogs - so this kind of CQd are  pet dogs .Puppy of Champions parents are more valuable than unknown parents .My advice is , go see the dogs, are they in nice condition  , well taken care of, seem to know their names and their owners? Are they trained, are they worked, do they show? Don't judge a book by its cover, go see for yourself . Bamboo tail KENNEL is a small hobby kennel, we do not make our living off of dogs and you are welcome to come visit anytime.Chongqing dog  looks like an ideal sized dog for most European families. if you decide to own one CQd please do not ruin this breed turning it into an overdone brachycephalic breed requiring c section to exist. Love the moderation. No need for extreme heads and other issues. Keep it natural and moderate!
