I would give this no stars if I could. At first I believed this to be an ethical breeder but I believe she over breeds her dogs and does not care that she's selling dogs with potential birth defects. I have an 8 month old male bred from Leia and Phoenix. He is beautiful but he is already presenting with alarming medical conditions. My dog has a high arch to his back, he's considered to be a bilateral crypto orchid meaning his testicals are up in his abdomen. This puts him at risk for testicular cancer, hernias and a few other things. To neuter him and correct the issue it is very expensive. The vet told me it is genetic and when I passed the information to the breeder she said she had been told that about another pup from the litter but the others were fine which I suspect is a lie because she never checked on us. Additionally my dog is showing lameness of his hind legs and hips that suggests congenital hip dysplasia. Now there is another litter already ready for a new home from the same mother and father and mine is only 8 months so she breeds her litters very closely together. I contacted AKC to file a complaint and they did take the complaint but there is nothing they can do. I hope people see this and stop supporting back yard breeders. I wish I had found more information on her before getting a puppy from her. We are going to be spending $$$$$ trying to give this puppy a life he deserves. read more
