I'm afraid some are doing exactly that Sandy...
Maybe not the ones you work with or chat with at shows...but there IS a whole 
other world of people breeding or brokering Bernese who don't give a whit 
about anything but profit.   They breed for maximum production period...and 
they intentionally structure guarantees in such a way that they're unlikely 
to be utilized.  Pay them some extra money and you get a lifetime 
guarantee!...just like the 'extra protection plan' when you buy a new fridge.

Perhaps you haven't experienced these breeders, but there are many people on 
this list who have... either by purchasing one of their puppies or by 
rescuing them.  And there are others on the list who will experience those 
profiteers ...unless we're able to help them discern the difference.
