I want to call you when I have the slighest question. I got Ricky from California, I live in NY.. I had my sister (who lives in Cal.) visit several time. Sure, some breeders told me to take a hike, so me and my money did... I needed to make sure that if anything happened it wasn't because I didn't do the most that I possibly knew to do. I needed to have a clear conscience. So, far (knocking on wood) its worked out. Desi is 5 years old, Millie is 4 and Ricky is 3 and they are healthy.
