I actually dealt with an AKC breeder today that actually won ribbons at some semi larger dog shows.
It was awful. He was surrendering a bunch of dogs to the shelter that wouldn't sell. Was bitching to me that they normally go for a few grand, and that he kept lowering the price and still couldn't sell them for just $300. The dogs were various ages between 12 and 18 months, and never named them. Said "they just sit in the backyard, losing value" like they're some junk cars.
Really making me wonder how many of these 'reputable breeders' are really reputable.
