Ooops I misread your post then and yes I am not impressed with these people that advertise as having champions in their line and even if it is recent in pedigrees, it doesn't make much difference it doesn't mean the seller actually knows what they are doing.
Pups that I deem pet quality and sell spay neutered can have more than 50% of Champions in the five generation pedigree but I consider it a pet and sold it as such. Meanwhile other litter mates, same pedigree are show quality or show potentials and i have kept them. BUt (hopefully) I have a good enough eye to know which is what and dont' sell that pet puppy as a show dog to some unsuspecting newcomer or someone that doesn't know.
