I totally agree with you on that.i have people in a large dog group,I run saying āoh Iām letting her have 1 litter as they say itās better for themā or ā oh I want her to experience being a Mumā I try and educate them,tell them thereās actually no need for a dog to have a litter as theyāre not like humans who might have maternal instincts. Also explain how fing hard it is raising a litter,thatās if they do it properly. Cats in particular are bad as they come into season so many times a year,itās a shame. If you have an outside cat you need to neuter or spay otherwise theyāre going to be confused pregnant or getting other cats pregnant
