It makes no difference to the breeder if the broker buys one for $50 or if a rescue buys one for $50 - to them it's the same money!
When they (OKYR) go at the end of March and in April to buy these Biewers they are guaranteeing the breeders will produce more. So, all of the Biewer lovers here, you can be rest assured the Biewer will be part of the auctions from this point forward, just like the yorkies. | Is it the same person providing dogs/puppies at both these auctions? Or does anyone know?
