Hi Tammy.
I would look up Mardelin's name. She is highly reputable here in California. I do not think she was meaning to be rude by any means...but you know how boards go--no facial expressions or gestures so they can be taken rudely.
I talked at great lengths with breeders here and Mardelin is right, if the AKC were to inspect them they do check for microchips. They need to know where puppies are coming from. I like the requirement personally. Keep people responsible.When we purchased my puppy the breeder explained everything that goes on when they inspect because I was very interested as you seem to be. A good breeder wants to offer all they can. |
