Local breeder to us.. what do you think?

[BoxMeIn21]

Ick. I would totally pass. Their boxers are horrible examples of the breed.

Well at least what I thought is what you guys are saying..  I (we) have been in touch with this breeder for quite some time and we never actually went to his facility yet..  When we first got Madden his name and number was on the board at our vet.. and my husband got the number and called him for advice before we got the behavioral trainer in for Madden..   He seemed helpful at the time and we always had this guy in mind when we decided to get another one..  WELL......   we just got his website yesterday and when I saw "black" I looked at my husband and said NOPE  he isnt good.. he is advertising black and white..  He also mentioned to my husband on the phone  that if they have a white or black pup they are not for sale..    Even then before looking at the site I knew this wasnt right...   

Julia - I have looked on Newcastles site and I am trying to follow every guideline there is..   We are trying to be so careful this time around.. we lucked out with Dakota (store bought) but we do understand how wrong it was now..  this site has helped so muchg as far as that goes..   sp this is why Im going through you guys first  LOL

Well I am so glad that you are not getting a dog from them      .    None of their dogs looks like a boxer  .      Keep looking and I am sure you will find the right pup for you and from a responsible breeder .

Megan- PM Jess (Lemko Boxers) she has a 6 week old litter and she is in your area. If she doesn't have a puppy for you she can definately refer you to someone. Jess is the owner of the male Jennifer (Newcastle) bred her Emma to to get my Peanut and others. Alisha (Shaeward) also bred one of her dogs to Harley. So you know she is a reputable breeder

As lovely as Harely is and as wonderful as he is producing, I've not used him. I'm just one of the lucky ones to live with one of his kids.

Oops. That's right I forgot Emma and Wendy are sister

[Shaeward]

Emma and Poppins are sisters (from Ruby's first litter)...Wendy is a 1/2 sister (from Ruby's second litter).

I'm glad to hear you'll be passing on them... unfortunately knowledge about dog behavior and knowledge of dog breeding don't always go hand-in-hand.  There are some stupid breeders who are smart about dogs in general.
