But there is a heck of a lot more bad apples in shelters then from breeders (good breeders not backyard breeders.)

Yeah, but there’s also a lot of bad breeders and backyard breeders.

People aren't saying but from backyard breeders, they're saying buy from actual quality breeders that care about the breed

That is why I said NOT FROM BACKYARD BREEDERS.

To me it seems that most people see “breeders” as anything from casual, backyard breeders, to the top quality ones. There’s certainly less “good” breeders than “bad” breeders. “Good” breeders may generally have better tempered dogs than shelters, but breeders as a whole (including backyard ones) have about the same level of issues with their dogs.
