Dog people do the same things to stroke their ego's, and to keep the price of their puppies high. They trot out lengthy post purchase contracts over what you can do with YOUR dog after you part with your money.

Sucking up to some old duffer just so you can get him to part with his pride and joy GTO is dishonest. Once people find out you have "stuff", there's no shortage of people contacting you disingenuously.

Out there doing it best I can.
