The breeders here charge a lot, but there are a lot of things they have to do to ensure maximum health. People (generally) look after their dogs very well here and they are pretty much all coming from licensed breeders. Our mother dog had to have x-rays to ensure the back was okay, and then an ultrasound for the puppies. It is pretty expensive to be a breeder too.

There are so many rescue dogs over here that need good homes it's hard for me to justify ever paying a breeder. Most everyone in our family that has a dog got them from breeders though so I understand. I just don't think I could do it myself.
