Dakski, thank you again for your valuable input! I definitely intend to work more with smaller breeders myself after this. The other 2 breeders were smaller based & were wonderful, great communication & seem to really know the animals they have. I feel the need to practically interrogate anyone I buy from now sadly, and anyone who goes along with all my questions fine is going to be someone I want to buy from.
rlditmars thank you! Yes I understand that it's a business & some are more in it for that aspect as opposed to it being a hobby they enjoy & make an effort in. Would be nice if everyone took in consideration of the animals themselves instead of looking at them as dollar signs but I guess that is why like Dakski suggested, we focus on working more with the small timers that do this for love of the animals. It's a major networking type hobby & for those that aren't very communicative & honest they will eventually lose out to those that have those traits at the opposite extreme. I have decided not to do business with this particular breeder again so I can focus on supporting those that deserve it and may support me in kind in the future once I am able to produce.
Thank you both for your opinions on the matter, I am very grateful! Take care!
