Etymology
Breeder comes from the verb breed, which means 'to produce young' or 'to raise animals', and the ending -er means 'a person who does something'. So a breeder is a person who produces and chooses the best animals as a job, which is why we use it for people who raise horses, dogs, or livestock.
