Will have to remove criticism of dog breeding

[edit]

I completely agree with you on the idea of your edit (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Dog_breeding&oldid=697179610); however, can you cite some references that are in print? I know that they're out there. I think that it'll be hard to find a reference that "breeders are motivated by money", but should be possible to find articles such as stating that the preferred long-legged look of the American GSD has led to ongoing problems in the breed, or that shelties (I think it is) that have a genetic seizure disorder that a woman in England (I believe) has been fighting to get rid of the problem that's not officially acknowledged, or that some breeds (bull dogs?) have to be artificially inseminated and given cesarean sections because their bodies can no longer do these things naturally, or that pugs with their shortened skulls and large eyes are prone to encephalitis, etc. Elf | Talk 22:50, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
