I agree with Mary. You have to be so careful about mentioning names on a public forum. Sometimes things aren't what they seem or are not quite resolved yet. A reputation is a priceless thing and should not be bandied about wrecklessly. I think the lesson that Barb and I would both stress through our experience is to always get a written contract no matter whether you are purchasing from a show breeder or hobby breeder. The spoken word sounds nice to the ear at the moment but the written word will let you sleep at night.
