Remember everyone, "champion bloodlines" does NOT mean show/breeding quality. Look at how far back those champions are, how many? But you have to evaluate the actual DOG, not just look at it's bloodlines.. Truth be told, most of our dogs have "champion bloodlines" because most of our dogs have a champions SOMEWHERE in their lineage.
Also, anyone can claim that they do this and that test. I'm not saying this breeder doesn't do any testing...but I don't think anyone has seen proof that she has either. Always be sure to get proof of testing that is claimed. |
Very good points! And that is good GENERAL advice, not something neccessarily related to this thread or breeder.
