I don't like dog breeding either. In general it just seems increadibly irresponsible to me because that are literally thousands and thousands of mutt dogs that are already in need of homes that are in shelters.
I don't disagree with you, but with that point of view, humans should also stop having children and start adopting. There are so many kids out ther without families or homes.
Well, I DO think more people should consider adoption rather than having their own...if I were to have kids, I would. But, it's also not handled the same way - generally, kids that aren't wanted aren't euthanized by the thousands.
Also, human adoptions are a lot trickier. People stay on waiting lists for years and years, and jump through hoop after hoop to be able to adopt. It's a long, hard process that is both emotionally draining and expensive. (I've a good friend who spent 2 years trying to adopt her son, finally a few months ago, it's done!) Whereas with animals, it's really pretty simple.
To get this back on track though, this Posh Pod crap is crazy. Looks more and more like a scam, the more I read.
