your opinions on this breeder!

my friend's sister got her corgi from this breeder six years ago and she seems very satisfied with her corgi and her decision. however, i don't know if this breeder is 100% the website doesn't show or mention anything about competing with her dogs, and half of the pictures on her website won't load (i tried safari and chrome. does it work on firefox and internet explorer?) she says nothing of her "if anything were to happen at anytime i'll take the dog back" guarantee. all she says is that she'll refund full purchase price within 10 days and requires you to take the dog to the vet within 48 hours of obtainment for a health evaluation. she also says nothing of a spay/neuter contract. i dunno...... i am very eager to get a corgi but i don't want to be so eager that i settle for a breeder that is less than par. oh, and i believe my friend's sister said she got her corgi for around $400 from this person. anyway i just need your opinions on this, because i believe my excitement and eagerness might be clouding my judgment here.. what do you guys think??

p.s. i also think that the price might be clouding my judgement too. $400 is a very exciting a cheap price. i know that corgis cost more than this usually though.. (for a quality one) i have $1000 saved up already, but as i've said in a previous post, i'm a saver, not a spender, so i'm more partial to this $400 price..... =/ talk some sense into me..?!

I agree with Cindi. I went thru the PWCCA and got referrals. PWCCA requires puppies to go home after 10 weeks so keep that in mind when picking your breeder. Also, several people have told me not to use any breeder that advertises their puppies on a web site.

We talked to our breeder before the pups were even born and went to visit 3 times before we took our puppy home even though it was a 5 1/2 hour drive to get there. I wanted to be sure that she was the right breeder for me. We have 2 of her dogs now and they are wonderful.

hmmm. i think i need to just give up on emailing and call some breeders. the ones i'm more interested in (and impressed with) are the ones i found on the PWCCA website as well. I know they're busy and probably get a hundred emails a day so i think i just need to call. something about this breeder didn't make me entirely comfortable, and i know i need to be 100% comfortable with the breeder when i'm getting my puppy. if that means spending more, than so be it
