I'm not about to start that debate in this thread and take it in yet another tangent from the original intent, but to state that a back-to-back breeding is somehow unethical, is in fact ill-informed.
Lookup some of the articles by someone like Dr. Hutchison who explains it better than I could  |
omg are you serious, i am an owner of a show and hunting line golden retriever. The breeder he comes from will not only skip one, but possibly 3-5 heats for the health and safety of the female. Anyone who breeds back to back as far as i'm concerned isn't in it for the love of the breed. If you're married ask your wife how she'd feel about being knocked up after every previous pregnancy.
