I LOVE mixed breeds and have a little Shorkie. Looked 6 years to find what I really wanted. She melted me and won my heart. She's my best little buddy.
I see nothing wrong with the mixed breeds today but, it is so important to learn about each parents breed. And testing and health. If you like this breeder, open up a communication with her. Before buying her pups. Although that really doesn't mean a whole lot either. I like to see if and how long before they call back. And have a list of questions to ask. YT members will give you a list of questions you can ask. Though the breed might be a mix, are the parents registered. How many litters has Mom had,and her age? And look for a health guarantee. For 1,200 you should at least get a year. I myself, would not settle for less than a year no matter what the price is.
It is really good to see the parents. And to see the place where the baby is raised. I ended up getting Jemma without seeing the parents and had her shipped too. Knocking on wood, no problems....yet.
Continue to search the internet looking for her kennel name. If people had problems, it'll crop up. A lot of times puppy mills don't sell their pups for 1,200. It's very hard to find a good breeder today.
Research, research. Even if you find breeders on here, maybe you won't care for the pups, or something else might bother you. Don't go with them just because they are in Canada. I'm not bashing any breeder here from Canada or US. So I don't want fingers pointing at me, lol.
We do have a page here where YT breeders post their pups for sale. You might want to look there Just keep looking and asking questions until you are satisfied.
Good luck on your search!
