I have been looking for about a month now, and most AKC (not champion) breeders are asking $400-600 for puppies.

I did contact this one breeder that said she had champion blood lines, she did all the health tests, etc. and she charged $1,100. She also said that a health gaurantee is just one way for breeders to get people to buy puppies and that most people over immunize puppies, that she only does it at 8 weeks.

I thought if you charge $1100 and you don't gaurantee the puppy and you don't immunize good luck selling your pups!

The thing is, the letter AKC mean absolutely nothing unless the breeding dogs have been shown, or judged as breeding stock by a professional who knows the difference, and also have thusands of dollars worth of tests to make sure they aren't breeding inherited problems to the puppies. Saying AKC in and of itself means absolutely nothing. Lots of BYB have AKC registered dogs and still breed poor quality puppies. To get a puppy from a REAL ethical breeder who knows what they are doing is going to cost, pure and simple, and well worth every dollar to do the best anyone can to insure a healthy puppy and dog. Pet stores sell AKC puppies too, doesn't mean it's a good idea to buy them.
