Yep! Also, improving the breed and striving for pure bloodlines helps to improve overall health quality!
In the long run, those breeders who just crank out puppies and sell them for big fees end up losing. The best advertisement is "word of mouth" and once an owner experiences the heartbreak of a sickly puppy ... ultimately their story is told and repeated so people won't go near that breeder! ... honesty IS the best policy!!
