Don't buy a puppy from someone who shows you only one puppy, and no other dogs. You will learn much more about your puppy from visiting with the other dogs in the family, than from just seeing an isolated puppy. Watch to see how they interact with each other and the breeders. Insist on meeting mom for sure, and dad if he is on the premises. Myra
