I would not post information unless backed up by known facts. I can tell you first hand that people in the show world like to start rumors. Someone tried to make something out of my having some of the dogs I do. My gosh, I do rescue, and the first thing I do is take them for a spay. I don't foster males.
I was very tired and stressed with paperwork last night when I made the post. I was downright mad when I heard what I did, and I acted before I thought. To say my mind was tired with the long day is no excuse, but I guess saying my brain was fried for the day may apply. I do not crate my dogs here, and wonder about people who have so many that they have to crate them for most of the day (except when in show coat, and then I prefer an x-pen). It is a personal thing with me. I also want mine to be able to go relieve themself when their body dictates. I've done free feeding for over 30 years without any problem. I like to go to the refrigerator and graze, and I give my dogs the same option. I want mine snuggling close to me, not in a cage. I rarely sit without having at least two in my lap, sometime more. If I had wanted to get nasty with it, I could have posted a name, as well as more facts. I do regret that I put a state as someone did send an email asking if it was a certain breeder--it wasn't. In fact, it's not anyone I've read about on Spoiled Maltese. I guess we all have our own way of caring for our dogs. For me, I just don't plan to ever have so many that I have to stack them in crates.
