I know Bubbatd - I won't - I've learned a lot on this forum....
But, in all honesty, I would do it again (for him), we love him sooo much I can't say it was a bad experience even though I know it is wrong to buy from people who carelessly breed like that - but he is our baby now and it would be like being angry at a person who gave up their baby to you for adoption and then got pregnant again. Just imagine the joy you would have missed out on if that person had actually been responsible. I don't think these people are raking in tons of money either as they didn't charge very much for the puppies in Colt's litter in comparison to what their costs were. I don't understand why they're doing it??!!
I do tell anyone who admires Colt or is considering a Collie to do their homework FIRST!! Look for a reputable breeder, consult sites like these, understand the breed and things like that....We just fell in love and bought him and what a lucky boy he is!!
