we do see many puppies here with all sorts of things - LP and LS being at the top of the list - but there's a big difference with your average BYB breeder and a true ethical breeder - Ethical Stands behind their lines.
The difference with a Pet Store puppy compared to an ethical breeder is vast - you don't know what you're getting 99% of the time. Of course the puppies are cute - but they also MAY be coming to you with a world of problems. Pet Stores and Mills don't care & won't care - and are only in it for the profit.
The reason we see so many puppies with big problems is there are way too many people breeding and selling puppies who shouldn't be.
