    There are heritage and preservation breeders that do try to breed healthy, genetically diverse animals.

    As society has found out time and time again, a prohibition does not solve the issue. Education, harm reduction, and sourcing from ethical sources will work best.

    Certain breeds would die out without heritage and preservation breeders. These types of breeders basically live and breathe their animals.

    I loosely know a few and they are always rescuing animals, doing breed education, etc.

    Just saying “don’t buy from breeders” won’t ever fully work. We have to come up with a better solution.
