I don't think she is a broker because she breeds them in her home. She has beautiful dogs and owns both parents with full details on each. I think the Korean boy pup was maybe one she had purchased as a future sire? Not too sure as I didn't ask. He was 5 months old and wanted $2500 with possible paper work to follow, she was waiting for them so wasn't sure they would come. It was too much for me and I didn't feel comfortable getting one from Korea. He sure was a cutie though! Here is her website, check it out and tell me what you think

I did contact Lorraine but she only had a boy and I preferred a little girl plus her next litter wasn't due till September and I wanted a puppy to train during the summer before I want back to my teaching job in the fall. She was very helpful and her dogs are beautiful as well and yes only $1500 which is very reasonable! I ended up getting my Pippa down in the states but if/when I decide to get another I will definately contact her. While researching breeders in BC and Alberta the ones I came across were asking $1500 and up with girls being on the high side. I really wanted a girl so I was looking at $2000-3000 not sure why girls are more if you are not going to breed? I found in the states they are more like Lorraine's price range of $1500 regardless of sex. I'm sure there are lots of breeders that I missed but that was my experience.
