No she does not have the parents on site. I just know she sold some of the pups that my breeder had and believe that she gets them locally, but i could be wrong. I would have perfered to purchase from YTCA and i know someone locally. But getting full registration is imposible around here and i dont believe in shipping |
Well, I don't know if I agree that anyone who has a website or ships puppies is terrible. It sure makes it easy to rule out a lot of breeders though without needing to do further research. Plenty of red flags can be picked up from websites. On the other hand there are breeders who do not have sites that use YT as a forum to sell their puppies that people should stay away from as well! So you can't be too careful!
I just think we should be careful recommending breeders to someone looking for a puppy. A broker, who is selling all kinds of mixes is the last person I would ever suggest. I would hate to suggest someone that could be a puppy mill, BYB, etc..
I would think getting full registration from a reputable breeder would be hard, it should be hard. I would be very suspect of any breeder that sells dogs on full registration to just anyone.
Are your dogs fully tested, evaluated, registered, etc..? I've seen that you are expecting two litters and in reading some of your past posts, it doesn't seem like two of them came from very reputable breeders, which begs the question about using them for breeding!
