Also you expect for a good quality show line to have endorsements put in place to protect their lines! After all if they're so special to warrent a humongous price tag, then they're special enough to protect! It just boggles my brain that ppl go around selling puppies at huge prices that are possibly substandard or even bad lines!

i agree with you.....if the parents of the pup are show winners then you will expect to pay more BUT in that case you are buying the breeders name not always a quality pup. Ive heard it around the ring "oh thats "whoevers" breed so they will do ok"
One of the reasons i dont show much is because alot of the time its who's on the other end of the lead not the dog
