RE: TN Lady looking for love
If I were you, I would be calling breeders right now. I think you will find out that the good breeders are going to have a lot of questions about your girl and are going to want you to doa lot of testing. The good breeders usually belong to breed clubs and conform to a written code of ethics.
The not-so-good breeders won't care; I don't think you want to put your girl at risk breedingwith a not-so-good breeder. My wife and I are the rescue coordinator for Minnesota for our breed. We see the results of a lot of irresponsible breeding, especially from the puppymillers and occaisionally the BYB's.
