Thank you;
didn't know what "LP" was. Being conrete is good!!! Maybe intuitively I knew that something was wrong with that sire, and that is why I wrote about it to you all. I am going back in a few days and will ask more about the sire
and am also [now] looking again at other breeders in the area. A couple of months ago, I had a bad experience with someone acting as a breeder that I now know was probably a "broker". When she told me she could "get one" [puppy] with a little time and that she didn't allow visitors to her "kennel" for fear of germs, I figured I'd better run. Then I also ran into a place in N.E. TX that sells "teacups" (I know) for between $1500 to $11,000 to "celebrities" and people can "bid" for them on the net, sight-unseen, for prices
less than what you'd pay if you showed up in person. Hhhhmmmmm. If my random experiences are representative, there is a lot of crookedness in this business........ makes me think of the hastles of purchasing from a used car salesman....

Thanks, all.
