I know for a fact that no harm was meant. I am just asking people to think
about what and why it was written in the first place.

If I felt someone was about to breed a litter haphazardly, I might give them
the poem myself. 

BTW, I too at age 22 bought a petshop puppy that had to be put down at nine
months because both hips gave way. Through anger at the injustice of that
breeding I got the impetus to educate myself. 

Did you mean anything else that I missed?
