I used to sell dogs, not "sale" them.

And, when I advertised, they would be for sale, not for "sell" ...

I would try to stay in touch with most who had them, precisely to get an idea as to how they were doing.

And, being a professional breeder, I sold them for money ... because without money it would be called a gift or a trade.

I always tried to sell dogs that would win or die trying ... though I have never believed it was right to actually let the dog die trying.

I would refuse to sell any dog to someone who was known to refuse to pick up.
