I have many people say to me ....(relatives, friends...etc...) Oh you'll give me a discount, oh you'll just give me a pup....and so on. Well no I wont!  Many don't realize that there are ALOT of costs in raising a litter, from the whelping, to the age when they are ready to go.
So yes, I may concider it at some point, but then again, it would depend on the screening process with the person, and so on.

My feeling is that if you are bartering on price, you can't affored it and maybe comprise on their medical care. You are questioning my integrity and the value of my pups. But, again, it's a moot point for me since my pups are all spoken for prior to their being whelped.
