I see many breeders selling puppies, champion sired or champion lined, but not their champions on their kennel name rather off the work of someone else that they got a hold of the lines indirectly because a reputable show breeder trusted someone they now regret trusting.
If this actually is a show breeder that has done this who shows the dogs themselves and the champions are their own kennel name, that is pretty disheartening and you can bet not many other show breeders are going to be willing to trust that breeder with their lines when they are looking for some new blood to bring into their lines.

Yes that would be pretty disheartening. It goes back to what I said earlier, you can't very readily get a show potential/quality dog from a Reputable Show Breeder. If you do, it's as you said and that person is only in it to make big $$$$$ and has not a clue what blood, sweat and tears went into perfecting that line and/or Ethics, Integrity and Trust.
