I am sure in a few years Adam I will be more like you on this subject, but for now I am still convinced that some of them can be saved. And more importantly our prices can be protected.

I guess my sales background is part of it too. Their has never been a better example of the old saying "Sold or be sold." So many breeders in this hobby are simply not sellers. So many that actually prefer to be sold on the value of their own animals.
Funny thing is, if you search through the site, you'll find hundreds of old posts of mine trying to save/protect/educate ... bad news ... it didn't work.

Keep fighting the good fight though, it's a life lesson for sure.
