Why? It isn't bad, it's just that instead of just buyingdogs, you can save dogs too. If you were to get them from a foster or shelter, you would be also saving their lives. That is why people say it is bad to get a dog from a petshop.
Not usually but its always better to buy from a shelter to save an animals life and their usually nice

The main reason for buying a dog from a breeder or certified breeder, is mainly to avoid common problems that can afflict pure bred dogs, like illnesses and bad growth. Breeders are generally trained in spotting dogs that may develope these kind of conditions and will not further breed or sell afflicted dogs.
When you're a breeder.
A breeder that has a dog's hips evaluated is going to extra lengths to ensure the dog is healthy and doesn't have any genetic faults. These dogs are typically more expensive since they are usually health guaranteed. A responsible breeder will have these health checks done, and a back-yard breeder will not. The responsible breeder's dogs will be healthier, and more expensive. The back-yard breeder does not health checks, and will sell puppies for less money. However, just because a dog is more expensive, doesn't mean that the dog has good hips. Before purchasing any dog, ask the breeder for hip certification on the parents. Also ask for certification on the eyes and elbows. If these are not available, reconsider buying the dog, since there is no guarantee that the hips will be good.

I highly recommend buying your chameleon from a breeder. Much safer, and you can ask the breeder any questions you may have about the lizard you're buying.
he bought his dog from a breeder or... "The farmer is a well known breeder of cows, chickens, and pigs."
You may pay less money if you purchase from a private home, but buying from a qualified breeder may have more benefits and guarantees available to you. A private home may also be a qualified breeder. The bottom line is that you want to make sure that the breeder is reputable and that the dog is in good health with a good temperament.
