i wasnt promoised that my pups would be show dogs, nothng was said about showing these perticular puppies, but i was verbally promised that their parents both pups coming form differnt breeders had ancestors that were champions. my female was advertised in the paper as champion lines. After i recived her pedigree i found that theres no champion lines and really i shouldnt even breed her.
I was wondering when someone would bring this up. With all the dishonesty
out there, I think the only way you can really know what kind of a dog
your pup will grow up to be is by studying the pedigrees. If people say they
have champion lines and it's back 5 generations and the breeders on the
front part of the pedigree cared little about their breeding what good would
champion lines do you. If you're in a hurry to purchase a dog and don't have
time to check out the lines you like at least get one from a breeder that has
a champion sire or dam and your chances are alot better. Ask them for the
TN # of their champion to make sure it is in her/his name and the breeder
isn't giving you a story. You can let them know you trust them but people
you know have had problems and if they are "for real" they will give it to you
so you can check it with the akc. Maybe this is just me but I still think a
show breeder is the best place to buy a pet quality puppy.[/QUOTE]
P. S. We have some excellent breeders right here on YT that are not show breeders
that can give you what you are looking for I'm sure. Just pm me and I'll give anyone
looking , the names of a few excellent people that people here have dealt with and
have been very satisfied. But then again these people know their pedigrees backwards
and forwards. |
