Any dog breeders round here?

Probably because over 2000 unwanted dogs are euthanized every day in America.
Good breeders breed for temperament, which is a great quality when you have young kids in the house. Any pet is a wildcard to some degree, but the pets I’ve bought from breeders have been great with kids. I’ve rescued also, but I’d rather help mitigate that risk when young kids are involved. I wouldn’t make a blanket statement to swear off all breeders.

I agree, and don't swear off all breeders.
 
Bred my sweet baby about five years ago. Wonderful experience. Can't imagine making a business of it. Labor of love is my motto.

Kept two of the pups and sold the rest for enough to cover about 1k more than the costs (or at least that's what I think).

Dog breeders are scum. Only marginally more despicable than the dolts who buy from breeders while shelters strain to manage the existing overpopulation and regularly have to euthanize healthy dogs.
 
Need a French Bulldog in my life.

All of them?

Why don't you tell us how many of those are from breeders, and how many are from POS owners that let their fucking animals wander free, and never get them fixed?
I swear this place has the dumbest people I've ever encountered.

I didn't say they're all from breeders. Merely put out a number, as a suggestive answer to a question asked of another poster. Calm down.

But it's not an answer, in any way at all. The animals put to sleep are strays and aggressive animals, not pure bred, papered animals. Not to say they aren't good pets, but breeders have nothing to do with animals being put to sleep. Most breeders have a couple batches of pups per year, and do it primarily to continue the breed and perhaps a particular bloodline.
It's a shame that apparently we now have adults that have been raised on the internet, and have no basic common sense about real life. Everything has been "learned" from shit they've read online since they were a kid, most of it from other idiots with no real life experience. This is more a rant about the "I hat breeders" morons.
