Your breeder must have a very small program where she is only breeding a few pets. It doesnt make her any less reputable, but her program is probably not designed for the betterment of the breed.
Her pricing reflects the usual form as a small BYB. Most BYB"S do not know their bloodlines or know anything about their pedigrees, do not do testing prior to entering them into his/her breeding program. Most BYB's do not take thought in matching breeding pairs, rarely give a 1 year guarantee, lets their pups go 6-8 weeks with one vaccination and more than likely hasnt seen the vet more than once (tail docking and dewclaws).
