Congrats to the op! I can tell you love your Bailey!
As for the breeder: Yes a clean home should always be a given however, the op did not visit the breeders home as the meet was half way. As for the ethics of a breeder, those one are born with, ethical breeders know the danger of breeding bitches under 5lbs. One does not have to know a breeder personally to form ones opinion of said breeder, due to the information a breeder has on their website. An informed consumer should know the red flags to look for. {Thus being why many yter's have pointed them out}
I do not know the said breeder personally however, any breeder should not be breeding bitches under 5lbs healthy or not. Too much risk! The size of the male has no impact, it is the lines that determine the size of puppies, not just the male.
JMO- But if a breeder has a website where puppies are for sale, the health guarantee should be on the website so potential families are able to read and know exactly what is covered prior to purchase. Health testing of what is preformed should also be placed on website as well.
I wish the op continue success with Bailey!
