Parker, if you go back and re-read my posts on this thread, you'd know I don't think that everyone selling pups is out to "hook" someone. I have no problem whatsoever with folks selling dogs...it's their property to do with as they choose.
So, you don't replace on guarantee, you give the money back. Is that just the purchase price or the purchase price plus all costs of raising the dog until it is culled or returned to you?
What exactly is "everything" that you would be out of by taking a free pup off proven producers? And yes, I know and understand what proven producers/reproducers are.
Ultimately, I don't care what anyone else does with their dogs/pups...sell them or give them away, it makes no difference to me. They're not my dogs. But it would seem as though you believe any dog or pup that doesn't have a price tag could never be a quality dog. And, that my friend, could not be further from the truth.
And as for you last comment...in my experience, you are way off on your culling percentage. You see, quality is quality whether you purchase it, or someone trusts you enough to give it to you. The catch is, you have to know what quality is, if you don't, I'd imagine your stated 7 out of 10 to be culls is probable.
