My Max's breeder is very well known, has been breeding for over 35 yrs, and has well over 100 Champions - Max is about 9 pds now. I know that she had a tiny at the time I picked up Max but the puppy was not leaving her until she made weight and even then she was going to her Vet's asst. She breeds for standard but Mother Nature can always step in I understand what you were trying to say - and most people think it - but actually show breeders don't sell their dogs for that kind of money unless they are truly a show prospect and even then they will either keep them for themselves or co-own them until it Champions. I bought my Mia from Petland (before I knew about them) and I paid 3x what I paid for Max from a show breeder.
