That's your prerogative but unless you are going to be cracking open your wallet, writing the check, or swiping a card, its up to them. My only issue with you is that I have seen you post about it in places that its not warranted and it seems like some type of judgment call that you are making. Someone post about their 11 week old pup asking advice on teething bones is not the place to swoop in and tell them that their breeder is not in your opinion, "reputable". It just rubs people the wrong way.
According to your standards 95 percent of breeders probably would not live up to all the things you list as what makes them "reputable" and the majority of the people around here probably got their dogs from one of them. A few may have had bad experiences but I'm sure the majority are happy and content with their babies and they would do it all over again. In the end that's what is most important, dogs getting good homes.
