All retired boys have been placed in pet homes and are not available.  I keep these here so that people can see ancestors of their puppies. Some people have a bad view of breeders in general, and breeders who place their breeding dogs after they are done producing puppies are just the devil incarnate.  These people feel like breeders "use them and throw them away when they can't make you money anymore".  Let me say that it is never easy for us to place our retired dogs.  They have been in our home and loved on for several years by the time they retire and we grow attached to every single one.  That is the main reason I feel that placing them is so important when they are done.  If I kept every single dog that has been kept for my breeding program, I could easily have 50+ dogs and just how well cared for and how much attention can be given to that many dogs without a full time staff? And how would my breeding program progress if I kept the same 3 or 4 dogs in it for their entire lives?  Each breeding is done with the hope of producing something better than the parents in every respect.  They get to be a single dog or only have to compete for attention with maybe one or two other dogs instead of a dozen dogs.  They get more attention than we can give.  It's a "retirement" after all and should be the best years of their life where they get completely spoiled.  They've earned it!
