I so don't need another dog but he is seriously tempting. I'm very surprised someone would be selling him on full registration though...

Very strange. I wonder if the breeder knows he's being passed on with full registration? Also strange that someone serious enough about dogs to be given a show prospect would sell the dog with the crate; most serious dog people collect crates. I wonder if there is more to this story.

I found another ad in the chicago tribune that states "to a good pet or breeding home" which really makes me think something might be shady. There aren't too many breeders around this area but I suppose he could have been shipped from anywhere.

Actually there are a ton of breeders in this area and much further west too, before I got Charlie, I looked in the western Chicago suburbs (Naperville, Woodridge, Lisle, Westmont, etc) and there were at least 8 breeders already (though I eventually drove to Oneida for Charlie).

I def don't know the story of this fella though; but if anyone's interested def more research should be done and talking to the owners.

Eh I figured out who the original breeder is, think I should send them an email? I feel kind of weird because it's really none of my business, but I'm sure a breeder would want to know if someone was selling their pup without their knowledge...
