Kathy Murphy is a wonderful breeder and has some of the top bloodlines in the country. I would buy a 12 week old puppy from a great bloodline as opposed to a 6 or 8 mo. old from a lesser line. I would also buy the one Kathy likes best as no one is as good a judge of how a dog will turn out as his experienced breeder. Just my humble opinion. Also, if a breeder is going to keep a puppy until it's 6 months or so and deems it show quality, you can expect to pay 2 to 4 times as much for the same dog.
