That you found a good, reputable and honest breeder is key. I'd not base my decision on gender. Breeders like her are not a dime a dozen and if she has a suitable, loveable boy puppy I'd take back the pink stuff and start shopping all over again. Really, the accessories are not important compared to having a healthy, socialized puppy who just happens to be a boy instead of a girl.

If you like the boy puppy, don't let his gender scare you off. He will be a wonderful, loyal best friend to you.

Well said!
