What about the breeder that you got your girl from? Surely, given that she sold you a dog with open registration to breed, she would be interested in working with you?
Also, in regards to CH bloodlines...that could mean a multitude of things. It could mean that there are numerous CH on each side of her pedigree in recent generations, or it could mean there are one or two CH several generations back. It makes a big difference when it comes to how much of the "Champion" genes you mention are being passed down. I say this just to point out that saying she comes from "champion lines" doesn't really give enough info to other members that they can base an opinion on. (Does that make sense?)
