Re: You know what I hate?
I'll never cease to be amazed at the shocking things that some breeders do.

Everything from "getting rid" of old pets to make room for fancy new potential breeding stock (or because their new breeding stock doesn't get along with the other pet that was there first) to selling unsuspecting buyers a lemon.

Good luck finding a decent breeder. Champdogs have some good breeders listed, you may want to try looking through there?

Do you mean how far back can they trace the pedigree or perhaps how far back the breeder's affix appears in the pedigree? Perhaps you could explain what you mean?
How many generations back her pedigree went, yeah :P

I still don't understand what you mean?

I usually give my puppy buyers a five generation pedigree as that is enough for most people but I can trace their pedigrees much further back than that. I suspect that possibly people were confused by what you were actually asking.

Re: You know what I hate?
When we were looking for suitable breeders I contacted the Puppy co-ordinators of the West Highland White Terrier Club.
They were really helpful and gave us the contact details of good breeders with puppies available.

Re: You know what I hate?
Ridgielover, from the sounds of their other answers, I don't think it was that...
Any good breeder knows their lines and is happy to discuss them with a potential puppy buyer. They would have asked what she wanted to know surely?
