If the 'breeder' is hell bent on getting rid of these puppies...she will. Yep, it's wrong wrong wrong BUT Ellie's Mom is going to report her...that's the best she can do.
As for Ellie, what better place for her to be than with someone on this board? There are so many bright informed people here who will help in a heart beat...I think BYB's suck BUT she, at least, has a fighting chance with the YT team behind her!
