There is no way this woman will give away this beautiful dog, but it's doubtful she will let the best home slide away because of an intimidating price tag. As for the dog being tiny, anyone with a brain regarding breeding can make that judgement upon seeing the dog. So don't judge, don't assume and don't insult. It makes you look caddy and negative. Everyone is here for a reason. We all share common grounds and love our animals. To bully and gossip about people is just unattractive. Maybe we can suggest ideas instead of making nasty comments.

That's a bold statement for a first post....
