She has 55 champions to her kennel name now...so, it makes me wonder if she has two separate types of breeding she is doing...some good lines that produce champions, and then some others......to make money.
I'm very disappointed to learn thats the way she's doing things now. |
Well just looking at Loki's pedigree there are no champions until at least his great grandparents and back, and then they aren't Stardust but others. I'm trying to remember but I haven't looked at it in years. But it's like she studded a female to a male champion like 3 or 4 generations back. Neither parents nor grandparents were titled - that much I remember. At the time, I had no idea what that all meant.
Honestly I think she only told me because I asked if she was a broker or how did she otherwise have puppies and no parents. She was nice and I had no reason not to believe her. Again, I'd never done this before. Someone just told me it was better to go to a breeder than a pet store. I've learned quite a bit since then. The breeder I'd gone to the week before had puppies peeing all over her living room and when you picked them up they shook. I wan turned off because mom was solid gold and dad was grey. The puppies were cute, but compared to that Susan's "experience" seemed an improvement. Quality Yorkies are hard to find around here and I was desperate for one. I was patient the second time and Sammy just kind of fell into our laps! Loki is still my baby though, even with all of his issues. Medical problems aside, his lack of socialization remains a challenge to this day. I can't imagine if someone got him who wasn't willing to do the amount of training that I have done with him...
