📝 Why Raising My Own Puppies Matters So Much | Boise Doodle Co

You know what blows my mind?
The fact that not all breeders actually raise their own puppies. 🤯

I mean, really.
Some breeders are basically just project managers.
They'll pair a mom and dad dog, then send the pregnant female off to a guardian home.
The puppies are born and raised somewhere else. Maybe the breeder swings by now and then for a quick visit or a few pictures. Maybe they just get updates over video chat.

That's it.

And honestly... I can't relate. At all.
