I am not here to start an argument I just think that all breeders if they want to breed fair enough but get the babies neutered?
I just think of the welfare of all animals you never know who will end up with an animal down the line and being as I work with animals I see so many poor animals beaten and left to die by stupid owners who dont look after them or just dump them after breeding.... even if you love your ones and sell one to someone who seems to care they may breed and sell on to someone who doesnt care as much and so on... I just think why breed if there are so many rescues with animals in, looking for homes who have nothing wrong with them but get put to sleep because people keep breeding animals and there is just no space for them because people want puppies from breeders, where there is nothing wrong with the rescue dogs its not just adults, there are also puppies that get dumped because they get them from breeders who give animals to who ever (most breeders not all! before you all start on me again) and then the owners think its too much so dump it.

And by the way I am a she not a he x

I dont want to make enemies on here I just want to try and help people to understand the rescue side of things not the breeding side, its easy to say I love my animals so want others to take on an animal from me who loves animals too but just think each of them babies will have, depending on the species, loads of babies and their babies will have babies and I wouldnt want it on my conscious that not even all but just one might be in the wrong hands and suffering, but hey thats just my opinion.

Sorry if I rubbed anyone the wrong way and sorry for caring about the animals

hun i rehomed over 100 ferts last year and all are still with there owners! i keep in regular contact with most of them, as they are friends who love ferts like i do. i have currently 8 ferts on hols, 5 rescues here plus my own, i have no doubt that you love animals but this is not the place to slate anyone, im on here looking for potential new loving homes for my ferts, not to be judged , or slated for what i do.you have an oppinion and are intitled to it as do i. good luck in your job and what you do, 1 rescue is better than the alternative kindest regards shelley

i just want to say shelly is one of the nicest people ive met, the two ferrets i have from her are so lovely and fun (and neutered) and i also have two beareded dragons which are great. Shes somebody i would look to first if i was after something she breeds, as shes amazing at what she does

I saw her ferrets when i went to get my spiders, they may not be my thing but she does a great job for them and really does treat them with alot of care and respect.

More to the point they are from what i know and have seen bred for certain types not just your cheap run of the mill ferret.

I met a gorgeous big boy she has and although like i said not my thing they are still impressive.

I have seen all and handled some of these ferrets. They are all 100% tame and cared for a hell of a lot more than most of your feeble minds can imagine! Personally if I had the space i would have one of these but for you lot who have gave negative responses..... Typical. Get over yourselves and grow up. No one cares what you think your all time wasters. I suggest reconsidering your views as these would be amazing pets due to the time given to them with their up bringing

Oh and FYI get it neutered? that your own descision not the breeders! So stop complaining and post if you actually want to buy one!

Oh and just to let you know these are special breeds so do your research first!

collected my little girly from shelly this afternoon.

..not only is she a gooorgeous husky, but thanks to shelly her temprement is spot on. She is so placid and playful even my 18month old has played with her!

She is already much loved and has been cuggled all night......

Thanks shelley
