This is such a great thing to say. I also believe that just because someone is a show breeder, only has few animals, has won many trophies etc. does NOT mean they are a good breeder. MY breeder was all of the things I mentioned, her house was clean, the dogs lived inside, she had show awards (many, that covered her wall) BUT one of the dogs i got died of liver shunt, one came with fleas, ear mites, and my poor baby had a worm infestation so bad that I spent 5000bucks on getting him better in his first 3 days with me. And then I had to syringe feed and water him for two weeks after that.
A believe a person coming on here to LEARN should be informed, not judged and run off the site, because at the end of the day, they will do what they want, no one can stop them. I would rather see them educated then leave here angry and still not knowing what to do.
