  I'm a reputable breeder and I will NOT sell WITHOUT a spay/neuter contract!  I don't want the lines I develop or those lines of breeders that entrusted me with them to fall into the "wrong hands" .  I will only sell with breeding rights to someone that is going to show and finish my dogs to their championship and only to those I know since I'm still in the learning stages of this aspect.  I have a passion for this breed and no I don't make money because I don't sell that much.  I improve my developing lines by careful breeding not by selling to someone that just wants to breed and not exhibit.
