Hi folks,
I have been out of town and am just responding to this post. First there
is nothing illegal regarding the Online Pet Auction. There is no
appealling to the owners of the site as they are in the brokering
business and this is just another aspect of that business. This is not
the only
but be careful when using it to buy a puppy.
Like buying from the newspaper screening breeders is very very important

I read this in the AKC Gazette from the Shih Tzu column, written by Jo

They never go beyond their own backyard - not for a stud dog, not for

male
of the specialty to our
north and visit our friends in Canada for their National specialty.
Preferably the BMDCA will rethink it's current plan to have a specialty
