Besides it is always better to buy a puppy from a champion line. Show breeders work to produce animals closer to the standard of the breed (health, personality and beauty). Anyway, my two cents!  |
The problem is, people tend to think that just because they pay more, they are getting a better quality dog. If you are just interested in a pet then why pay that much.
Also Champion lines are not necessarily healthier. Some breeders do a lot of close breeding and can end up with a lot of problems.
I'd suggest just buy from a quality breeder and you will get a better dog. It is more important to research the breeder than the dog.
Just because they have champions does not mean they are ethical.
