Monolo's mom does not breed, she's just beginning her show career. Will be entering her first show in Sept. She is being mentored by my mentor.

$8,500 is outrages; even for a show dog, from well known reputable exhibitor/breeders.

Yes, there are uneducated people that will pay that price. However, in todays economy, I'm not so sure. Because of the economy, reputable breeders have even cut back their breeding, even though in the past they only bred 1 or 2 litters a year.
