And most likey ppl who Champion there dogs are more likey to do the proper mating and health checks. Because they want there next Champion. I asked a breeder if they ever had a line with liver shunts .They said no. But all that tells me is know body complained or let them know. If they did they should stop breeding that line. But really you never know what your gonna get. But if I spend alot of money. I would rather give it to someone who I would believe to do the right thing. Instead of buying one from someone who just wants to have puppies or make there money back. Buying a health purebred is a lotto..JMO |
Yes I agree. My experience was unfortunate. I felt like I did everything right and asked all the right questions. I couldn't believe it when my puppy had a grand mal seizure at 9 months old. They had to shoot him up with Valium to break it. It's been downhill from there but he is well managed and I think happy. Pretty dog, sweet. It's like that movie twins...all the others were perfect and I got the genetic garbage.
