I got a puppy from a breeder because I couldn't afford getting a dog from a shelter and the dog not working out for me. Yes, I know rescues can be service dogs but it takes a very special dog to even have the temperament to be a service dog. I got a dog from a breeder because I needed a second service dog since my first will be retiring in a couple years. It was very hard finding a Flat Coated Retriever breeder that would even give their puppies to a service dog home. I messaged a breeder who lives 10 minutes away from me and she was extremely rude. Asking for my medical information, MY FAMILIES MEDICAL INFORMATION. I get it for me but the rest of my family? Red flag. Turns out, several Flat Coat breeders stay away from this person because she makes people feel bad for no reason at all and gets in their heads at dog shows just so they fail and she wins. (Ifykyk) While it was very hard to find a breeder, I ended up finding one in Colorado who was willing to give one of her puppies to a service dog home. And it has always been my dream to show dogs and when she mentioned she wanted to give this puppy to a showing home, I immediately took her up on the offer. I went to Colorado which was a 4 day trip, 2 days to get there, 2 days to get back (I'm from Southern California) I LOVED KÖNIGS BREEDER! she was absolutely amazing and has been extremely helpful. She loves watching König and I become very successful with his training. Before you hate on me and send me nasty messages saying I'm a dog killer because I bought a dog from a breeder.... Please do me a favor and find me a Purebred Flat Coated Retriever, with service dog temperament, is showing quality, and in the shelter... I will wait 🙌 Flat Coats are rare dog breeds, so it would be very hard to even find a purebred Flat Coat in the shelter. While I wish I could rescue every dog in the shelter - there just isn't a chance for me too. We can't rescue every dog, just like how we can't adopt every child that's up for adoption. I will forever be someone who will always love my purebreds but that's just what I prefer honestly. There is still hundreds of people out there who are willing to adopt a dog.
