Well, now I really feel robbed.....I just put the additional $300.00 to my Breeder, in a Over-night letter! Maybe now I'll finally get his AKC. Registration done, it sounds like "Blackmail" to me, but there was no other way. She would not compromise it's been almost a year! Luckily, he's as strong as an ox now and I have no problems with any Bad habits and he does have a champion bloodline. So I would not advise the Internet to anyone. It is very risky you really don't know what you will get? I don't think the price reflects quality and I think the price keeps getting higher due to the demand/publicity? What price can you put on "Unconditional Love" and a built in "Anti-Depressent", he saves me money in the long run.....free Joy & Happiness!
