Why does "doing it right" feel so exhausting? If you've ever felt judged for your feeding choices, overwhelmed by puppy curriculums, or drained by 24/7 buyer messages, this episode is for you. I'm breaking down the "Proxy Problem"—the trap of using checklists and health-testing markers as an ethical standard instead of a pathway—and why being a truly good dog breeder is about intentional decision-making, not mindless dogma. We're shifting the focus from constant effort to sustainable results. If you're ready to trade burnout for a clear, sustainable path forward, visit https://honestdogbreeder.com/129 to register for my upcoming workshop: Why Breeding Feels Overwhelming—and What to Do Instead.
