Another potential breeding...if the breeding happens as planned, pups will be ready to go the end of July. I'm not 100% sure if that will be too early or not, but the breeder is very excited about this breeding and is planning to keep two pups from it herself. The end of July will be when my housing is going to be changing, so...we'll see, I suppose! But, regardless, pictures of the sire and dam!

Puppies will be due towards the end of May if the breeding goes as planned, and I'll for sure know by then whether a pup can happen end of July. Which I'm hoping by then it will work. I really, really want it to work.
I also think this is the breeder I'll be going with. She has little to no strings attached to purchasing a puppy, and even though the price is more than I really wanted to pay, her dogs are health tested
and worked. I've also met one of her pups and I adored it.
I still have to contact one more breeder who looked promising, but I think I've decided that I'd rather pay more (double
) and have health tested lineage than skimp on the testing.
Coming up with the cash, though....That's going to be the issue. I have about $500 already put back, so I'm hoping another $700 won't be impossible to do, but...eek. It doesn't seem smart to spend $1200 on a dog when that's three months rent and I'm working a $9 an hour job.
