So many adverts can be misleading and I find when I start crossing my search over to different websites, the same puppy breeder can be seen advertising a completely different set of pups! Surely a responsible breeder will only breed one type of dog and not several. They can't possibly be giving the dog/pups as much attention as they need. The smell of money must be lingering somewhere.

Most of the pups advertised in the colour I want are miles away up north of England, it's too far for me to travel plus I don't like driving long distances I find it too tiring!

So if anyone knows of an apricot pup within reasonable distance please PM me.
