The other thing that came to my mind is we have such a huge problem with puppy mills. I'm not saying you - but our country has it's share of unethical breeders....I think your request took people by surprise & there is bound to be skeptics on ANY board you go to. |
Fortunately dogs imported from the USA, Canada and UK have no quarantine period. To import dogs is a very costly exercise and I was therefore considering to import one dog only. If the dog bred well, I would consider importing more from the same or another breeder. Then bitches will be imported. At this time I want to establish contact with a breeder that will be willing to export (withou me flying to pick the dog up). Negotiations can then start.
I do not partake in any puppy mill. This was one of the reasons I joint the board because I wanted to avoid that. After long searches on the internet I came accross a website with a list of banned breeders. This made me think I would be better off finding a breeder thru the board.
