Randy wrights curs

Any time you buy a pup you are taking a risk wether it is guaranteed or not. All the pups I bred are replacement guaranteed if they don't work, and I have had a couple come back on that, so to say that any line will never produce a cull is a little far fetched, and working expectations are different for every person. The other thing you have to do is your research on what lines preform the way you want. I know what my crosses do, and what the majority of pups are going to start out as when they age, but that comes only after working and proving my dogs and crosses over time, which doesn't make me a dog expert by any means. To be able to look at a cross without knowing what the parents, grandparents, and so on do, it's pretty hard to say what the pup is going to do. I think one of the things that someone looking to buy a pup also needs to do is not spend more money than you are willing to lose if things don't work out the way you wanted them to. A year old is a little young to be thinking she is what she is going to be, I've seen them mature out anywhere from a year to almost three, but personally I give them till around a year and a half. If their development has stalled I will cut them at that point, and cut them even sooner as far as starting to work goes. Not sure what happened with your and Randy's deal, I have never had that experience with him, but also haven't spoken to him or bought a pup in quite a while. I hope everything works out for you.
