Vlcaks' life stories

Rona · 21-12-2011, 10:06

Maybe a silly question to Admin, but I wonder if the life stories of our vlcaks are being recored and kept in the database or is the database only updated?

There are cases when somebody buys a CSV and then abandons it or resells it to a puppy mill or to a mix-breeding pseudobreeder, etc. etc. There are "vlcak enthusiasts" who care about the dog only for a couple of years and if the dog does not win shows and get P1 at bonitation, they either get a new "better" model or get involved in other hobbies

If facts from our vlcaks lives (e.g. previous owners) were visible in the database it might be easier to spot unrelieble people. I don't mean information assesseing or condemning the owners, because each case is different and things happen to people. But if somebody (lets say John D. from Z, coutry Y) wanted to buy a third vlcak in two years and his dogs notoriously changed owners, breeders might be more cautious before selling him a pup.

What do you think, guys?

Brilliant idea

Very good idea.

And I think, if a person resells their own dog, they must report it on the database like breeders report who they sell puppies to.

Otherwise maybe they should somehow be sanctioned on this site too.

I support it...but I guess it might become difficult, as there is nothing to "hold over the head" of an owner who doesn't share the story, so it would have to depend on the breeder (if they stay in touch through the life of the dog with the owner) or the hearsay of others...At least in the case of breeders, they have the wonderful reward of being able to advertise litters if they give information to the database. And that is certainly difficult to get compliance with as is...

But it would be very nice if there was a place to share it in the database for those owners/breeders who are willing to share.
