RE: stud fee
I'll need to find all her papers and such, but both her parents (and all her grandparents I guess you would call them that) have taken first either in national competitions or major region championships. Her parents are both hip and elbow OFAd. Both parents and her are natural registered pointing labs. Her parents and her have their CERF on their eyes. My lab herself cost us $1200, so getting an equal stud would keep the pups at that level, wouldn't it?
