Keep in mind, that often times you will not be able to see the sire. As the female may have been sent out for breeding to a sire. This is done at times when a breeder doesn't have males of their own and/or has their girl bred to a stud that can improve their lines. Or it is very possible that a breeder has the stud that another breeder has sent their female to be bred too. And in lue of a stud fee, recieved a puppy back for the breeding. Both are very common practices amongst reputable breeders. Especially those that exhibit.
