thats the key getting started. u would think having the world wide web would make finding good foundation stock easier but it seems to bring out the worst in people no matter what it is. i must say i have been blessed to have been taught by people that took pride in their work and demanded that others maintain a certain standard. if u are going to do it, do it right. the doin right is made easier when u deal with good peoples. its sad u have to wade thru a sea of crap to find the good and also maintain your motivation
Yeah its very disappointing. All you can do is work with those things you can control. If I can share something I found out, I was one of a few people that knew what they wanted before I got what I did. Most I met after did not, and it lead to them getting lead around by the nose, lied to, jipped. Most of them only contacted couple breeders as part of their research and wanted to buy something right away. I also learned that people like the ones you are talking about... all have a pattern. Learn the pattern and your instincts will warn you when someone is trying to pull a fast one.
