I had already met the breeder, met the registered breeding pair (same as Max's), and seen her home where the dogs are bred and raised. I believe she had more than 4 breeding females. |
I think as long as you didn't actually pay her until you saw the dog, you'd be just fine. So there has to be trust on the part of the breeder for this to happen. Hopefully it will end, some of the bait and switch that's happening, puppy buyer picks a picture and gets a dog that looks nothing like the picture and is also half dead.
