The price tag (NID). I would've thought they would've gone down by now, what with the increase in numbers and the lack of KC support. Or at least stayed stable, rather than the increase.
It's utter madness. I would have been happy to pay a price for a healthy new breed, but it was a lie. Don't get me wrong from my posts, I love my dog and I love these dogs but the whole enterprise is underpinned by greed and we all know what people are capable of when they are ruled by che-ching! Money.
No problem for me, I never parted with hard earned cash to get a mongrel that was made out to be something else.
I know you do. And they are. I just don't want my bitterness towards all the factions to cloud how much I love the dogs. I could say "with hindsight" etc. but then I wouldn't have my Loki and possibly he might have ended up with some g1t who wanted to breed from him, discovered he was epileptic and had him pts. :-( So in a round about way, I am glad he came to us, even if I feel stupid for buying into the lies.
lol thankwoo ;-) nah he NEVER gets called that by strangers lol ah thunder is da man tho! Tupac gets called that too!!(as does zeff)...even when being walked with some L.S ... he was lucky to find someone like you..it doesnt bear thinking about :-(
LS moved from the UK with 22 dogs in total I think. The utes, several huskies, a malamute, 2 collies and 2 deerhounds (I think that is correct). I am not saying they were all used for breeding. I have no idea what she did. Loki is a very lucky boy to have an owner like you
Agreed ... anybody with half a brain would be able to work out that back then they were never going to come anywhere near to obtain KC status.
To publically proclaim otherwise would have put her in court like JK. Far more sensible to do what she did ... batten down the hatches and be very very careful who she trusted ... once bitten, twice shy. It took us years of visiting and talking to her on the phone before she sold us Hal, she was very, very careful who she trusted, with very good reason.
Well said again ... you should not feel stupid, many people were conned by people like Nadia (me included). Loki is a beautiful boy and you are doing a wonderful job with him, he is a very lucky boy as you say
