I looked at one of those little lunches wearing a pink collar. It was 8 weeks old and cost $600; that made me hug my purse real tight.[/quote]Originally Posted by bassin_bug
Big dog's gotta eat too!
Man I paid $600 for my Black Lab (MAXX) a few years ago. At first I thought it was out of line but I looked into the testing of hips, eyes, elbows and whatever else they test for and I thought what the heck at least the odds are in my favor to have a healthy dog. MAXX is very even tempered and intelligent (learns quickly) a real pleasure to be around. That's important as well because some dogs are so high strung that they can't sit still.
I visited the Breeder and found it to be a very loving and clean atmosphere with the Mother and Father on site. That was my first venture into dealing with a an AKC Breeder and it was a good one.
A good Breeder can put out some great dogs....a bad Breeder can put out some stupid inbred pups that are skittish and prone to being sick all the time and that can get expensive.
Heck, if I had the room I'd have two!
