We believe genetic diversity is vital for the survival of all dog breeds, those already well established, new, still developing breeds, and the many Vulnerable Native British breeds. Importing enables us breeders to do this. We think that having to pay a breeder to board a puppy until 6 months will make this impossible for the majority of people. Puppy smugglers are already breaking the law, and we do not believe that adding another law is going to change anything for them, just those of us doing the best for our breeds.
