And make sure to research your breeders thoroughly. Make sure they do health clearances and that they are proving the lines (whether it be a show breeder or a working/hunting breeder. Or both!) Even if she doesn't plan on showing or hunting, this improves the chances that her dog will be healthy and live a good long life. This may require being put on a waiting list, which means that she won't get that puppy RIGHT. NOW. But it also means she won't be supporting puppy mills or back yard breeders. There is a reason they have waiting lists. :-D
