Thank you. I'm very distressed over it especially being that I took time to research good breeders, interview, and saved money purposly to avoid the HUGE medical bills and future intense care and medical bills I will be paying. I don't think I will ever pay as much as I did again for a dog.
I'm just curious to find out if it happens a lot to people especially those who make a modest living and save for a healthy dog. Are these high prices really worth it if genetic or congenital problems can happen in any breed line??
But as I said, don't want to get into a breeder bashing thread.
