This is my point exactly!!!
I am not saying the breeders are bad because they don't charge enough but that the consumers should recognize the true value of this breed and what it takes the breeder to produce and raise them and be willing to pay the breeder fairly for her time and effort!!
The point is not bad breeders but rather good breeders who are not failry compensated for producing these wonderful babies for us to adopt.
And it is not true that there would be some who could never afford one. It depends on your priorities...you ay have to give up smoking or starbucks or buying a bigger house but it depends on what you value.
I am surprised at some who do not feel these babies are worth more than $1000! I thought everyone was always saying
they are priceless and they consider them their children! That cannot be the truth is they are not willing to invest $1000. JMHO
