Jordan...

Hater??? I only try to educate through discussion as Kerri mentioned in her post below... no matter who would have posted the add that you posted I'd have responded with the same "buyer beware" statement because the add you posted was just BS even if your dogs are the best in the world if you want people to take you seriously in an add posted on a breed specific message board then include the testing and credentials that prove to any third party that the dogs are in fact the best and should be considered..."legends" in your words.

I'm more than happy to explain again and again to you why health testing and temperment testing and performance testing breeding stock is and I'm sure tons of other people are more than happy to do so as well. BUT I'm NOT going to let ANYONE get away with the add you posted below without educating lurkers, buyers etc... about what to look for in a breeder to purchase dogs from... Crap it wouldn't matter what board you posted on or what breed you were posting about...if an add shows up with claims and no credentials to back up those claims and nobody else has posted a response similar to my own, I'm going to educate others on what else to look for besides a bunch of fancy words in an add. Shoot I've called people who have adds in the paper before to request the information and educate them on the importance of testing etc...

Feel free to prove me wrong with credentials as to why you breed legends and show me a dog without serious conformational flaws that will translate into ill health later down the road and I'll be happy to tell you GREAT looking dog, good job... In fact your post about the run you did with your dog was responded to by many a person with compliments on your willingness to prove something with your dogs...but an endurance test does not make legends out of the dogs you produce.
