This is the day I let off a bit of steam about some
case of ignorance, stupidity or just plain absurdity. I leave you to decide which category best
fits.
Yesterday
I mentioned the designer pet business.
WHAT?! Is Mother Nature's infinite variety of and
diversity within species not sufficient?
There's enough natural "inter-selection " without Man having
to poke his finger into the pie.
The very
worst are those who manage to couch their advertising in terms of "we are
doing you such a favour in
producing a disease free/allergen free/hair-drop free anything you want it to
be variety". Why? It's false
advertising, that's why. Just ask your
vet. What's it all about? Greed. No let's make that capitals. GREED.
Further, it feeds the tendency to think of pet as accessory. Therefore disposable.
I am
totally menolooopable about this practice.
I can see nothing positive about it in the least and it damages
credibility of registered, caring breeders of established species.
Look, if
an 'accident' happened, okay fine. So
you got a mixed-breed. Don't call it
'Handbag Teacup Poopalot' and expect my multidollars for it.
Sorry,
Dear Reader. if you find this harsh viewing.
But so is this… Puppymill.
Leave
nature alone.
