Also...maybe ask Susan if you can have the pup checked by a vet YOU choose before the final purchase. If the pup is healthy.....then lemme tell ya.....her pups are ADORABLE and have the sweetest temperament!! I loved Ginger!! Thought she was the sweetest thing. She was pee pad trained at 9 weeks and so loving. Just thought it was crappy of Susan to sell a pup she knew could not reproduce. Susan knew my friend was looking for a female to breed and sold her a pup that couldnt do so....Having said that.....if you can have the pup fully checked before you commit, then, in my personal opinion, I can tell ya her pups are cute as can be!! Just dont let yourself settle because you are on a time limit.....this is in fact a lifelong commitment!!
