Please do not close this thread. I need all of your suggestions. You all have been quite helpful.
Thank you. |
I agree with you and Taylor, why take a chance? I would lovvvveeeeee a vet that charged me that price....I paid soooooo much more. I also have received pm's from other breeders who don't want to cause trouble....all I can say is LP can show up early or late but if I hadn't paid as much as I have for mine....and if I had a smidgen of a chance NOT to get a pup without LP or from a breeder who doesn't breed their LP dogs....I just wouldn't go with this breeder, sorry.
Great to see so many opinions!!
