I agree the poster was wise to walk away in this situation.
I was just suggesting that Good Breeders do not always fit some perfect profile. When I bred Labs years ago, I tested my breeders for everything I could. I carefully selected the best of the best.
But, I never let people in my home except the Fl. room, and patio screen room. I was worried about them bringing PARVO germs. I never allowed buyers into the nursery room. The stud was often off site. There was a lot of barking. And often two bitches had pups of different ages.
What I was trying to say was some things are ALWAYS Red Flags and I listed a few in the earlier post.
Getting a good pup has very little to do with price. Healthy parents, early socializing, clean environment, good Vet care, healthy diet and love are the most important factors. We all have to do our homework to find the right breeder and pup.
Thanks for letting me clarify, sorry this was so long.
