From a responsible Breeder-

Because I loved them first...
I didn’t sleep
When I did it was in a whelping pen
Because I loved them first
I did all the health testing I could
I did pre and post whelping care
Because I loved them first

I miss life events, family gatherings, work, sleep, and wouldn’t have it any other way
My dogs come first that’s why all the questions
Because I loved them first

I cried over a stillborn I did CPR on for 20 min
I worried and cried and prayed over the weak and tiny ones fighting for them
I bottle fed and cleaned a million linens
Because I loved them first

I was the first to trim their nails
I was first to give them a bath
I gave them confidence and encouragement
Because I loved them first

I will always take them back into my home
Because I loved them first
I worry and have sleepless nights even when they go to your home
Because I loved them first

When you call me with issues
Do not feel as though I do not care because remember

I LOVED THEM FIRST
