One of the problems with using other people to do your work for you, so that you can have more control over more dogs, is that it keeps you from facing the psychological problems that are developing - no I'm not a professional, it's just my opinion based on time spent at dog shows and with show dog breeders.

But I believe that, except in strictly for profit commercial use, it should be obvious that if you have to get other people to house your dogs for you, because your own home it too full of pets - then you have too many pets.

A normal person, with a few pets, doesn't have someone else raise and keep her pets for her - that would negate the entire point of having a pet!

When you start to 'sell' puppies but still feel they are yours, and you just can let go of your control over the puppy - maybe you should be getting profession help. Really.
