    Red face what an idiot I am

    I thought I’d share this imo embarrassing story. When I was searching out a local breeder in order to purchase my first BP I stumbled upon a website that was from a breeder conveniently in the area I work. So I called the number seeing if they had any “normal” BP. I was told they don’t normally sell their normals but he’d let me have one of the males. I then asked if he had any references like all good intentioned new BP owners should and here is what I got “Honey, I don’t need references. Everyone here knows who I am, and what I do.” Needless to say I was put off, but I like honestly and maybe even a little arrogance J I went home googled his name, turned to my husband and said, gee, I think I just insulted Ralph Davis.

    OMG! That IS funny. You'd probably be ok skipping the background check on him. Go wild and throw caution to the wind, just go for it. (That is a great story.)

    LOL ... I'm going to break his shoes really good over this one.

    Wonder if my t-shirt printer can make up a "Who's Ralph Davis?" shirt by Friday ... LMAO.
