Staci I am an old-timer and have been wondering about Genia myself. Before I got Bella Genia and I had e-mailed back and forth about me possibly being a pug owner. Actually I was picking her brain about the breed in order to present some info to hubby. She was very sweet to write me a couple of times all about Bandit, and even though we wound up getting another poodle (who we adore dearly!) she gave me some really good info. I know at the time she was very busy with her job. Maybe some of these folks scan the posts now and then but just don't have time to respond.
