It will be very interesting to see how long this guy sits in rescue. I am a Biewer breeder for over 5 years and do not warehouse my puppies. After I spay and neuter they go into adoptive homes almost for nothing after I fully check out vet references and homes. This guy would have gone into a loving home very fast, well under the price they are asking. What is more important is the welfare of the Biewer and how soon he can get into his forever home. The only rescueing he needed was from his owner! Now he will sit for a long time because people don't pay $500 for a 10 month old Biewer male. I have worked with the public for a long time and know what they will and will not pay. And, as far as puppyfind, do you see how many of those Biewers are older. That is because they can't sell them for the e
xorbitant price they are charging.
Please don't treat this thread as a debate. I am already angry as to what has transpired here and what is transpiring out there in the Biewer community.
