Hi, I have been breeding Berners since 1989 and have over the years interviewed a lot of PPOs. It is my experience that those people who really want a Berner will not mind the questions asked of them. They will readily offer up information about themselves and want to visit and meet the dogs. People who start out with "Do you have any puppies? How much?" do not elicit much of a warm response from me. I am not selling potatoes and I'm not going to be charitable and assume everyone is a great prospect until proven otherwise.
For those that don't want to answer questions they can buy their puppies from sources that don't care to know, just bear in mind that if a breeder doesn't want too much information from you chances are they don't have much to give back! Rose Tierney Sascha Kennel Perm.Reg'd. Ottawa
