Wow Phil I think I did not realize you had her Dna'd. But as you know those tests are not so reliable *yet* Glad to see you registered her with the AKC. I have not heard of a show breeder placing pups for $750 maybe a retired champion, yes. I guess show breeder prices vary widely state to state and country to country.
