You want a breeder that is going to take an interest in exactly who is getting their pup. This is going to be the start of a long term relationship and you what it to be a good one.

Dogs are not shoes. Buying a pup should not be as easy as clicking the paypal button on a website.

You will get recommendations here, along with PM's offering you pups. I dont know any of them personally, so I'm not commenting on them specifically. Just please keep in mind that any name that comes through YT needs to be looked at as thoroughly as you would any other. Unfortunately, too many people have learned that the hard way.
