KYS, I so heartily agree with you on that. I have advised many a potential dog owner to check out the breeders of their choice and look for information on how often the bitch is bred, health guarantees, and whether or not they will take an animal of their breeding back even later in life if something happens and the new owner cannot keep the dog (God forbid). I know a woman that breeds Akitas and because her name was on co-ownerships, the AKC investigated HER because 6 or 7 of her co-owns had been bred. I've also known others that never got investigated. Weird world, hmmmm?
