You hear and read about it all the time...Persons who have been duped or tricked, or otherwise mistreated by a breeder. While we cannot  post specific breeders names, due to liability. We CAN offer you some advice BEFORE you make a Puppy purchase, that just might save you some heartache.

SHOP AROUND. Don't buy the first pup from the first person you talk to. You may, after speaking to several kennels decide the first was the best, but SHOP AROUND FIRST!

If a Breeder says they have a whole litter of pups available. BE VERY VERY CAUTIOUS. Most GOOD breeders will have all of the pups spoken for BEFORE they bred their dogs.

If there is no waiting list. BE EXTREMELY Cautious. Again, most GOOD breeders, with good reputations have a waiting list. This means being patient, as some waiting lists mean a couple months to a year or more waiting time. (Remember Patience is a virtue) But at the end of the wait, you will often be MORE than pleased with the results.
