I think I have decided that I am not going to buy from her. She honestly seems like a very nice person and I do trust her, but I think she is asking a lot for her puppies. I dont mind paying whatever is necessary, but after looking around some more, I think I can pay less and still feel confidant that I am getting a good dog from a good breeder. (Including shipping, one of her pups would cost me about $2000 - with no breeding rights, not that I would want them, but it seems high for a pet)
I have done a lot of searches for local(ish) breeders, but none will consider us because of my daughters young age. That is something that I obviously have no control over. I may have to look across the border.
Anyways, thanks to everyone for offering their opinions. I've heard more positive than negative, but the negatives are enough to make me think twice. |
