@fruitman33 No mention of genetic testing, no generational family trees, temperament, no mention of showing dogs, or belonging to AKC or any other group. From what I've experienced... the dog breeding world is tight knit. I don't know if it's a scam, but I'd say they're not disclosing much. The reputable ones know one another, exchange loads of information about the lineage of their dogs, the majority of dogs have some sort of championship -show, sport, obedience, etc. You'll go to their FB pages, and find them conversing with other breeders, showing a dog they bred that's just won a championship somewhere. Not all their dogs go to show homes, most go to homes as family companions. But they like you to know how much work they've done to maintain the line of the breed.
They're very happy to share what they test for, what they're trying for when they breed a dog. They also like to know a lot about the people they sell to -mine had looked me up online, found out everything about me, and mentioned that they saw all the photos of my dogs! They made sure I would be a good match for the dog, and it helped that I had a lot of experience with the breed.
You could start by going to dog shows. Talk to breeders, ask them about their dogs. Talk to them about what makes a purebred a representative of their breed. Find out about their energy level, what circumstances where the dog is at their best. And then decide if that dog is for you.
Lastly, potty training is an ongoing process. A puppy that is trained at 10 weeks, might forget everything once she hits your unfamiliar house.
