I'll be more then happy to travel down the road a ways and settle any disagreement anyone has with me. This also includes all the sniveling crybabies with their paper hang dogs who has a problem with the fact that my dogs are bred as said!!!! And as far remarks made about my dogs, I will say this once again what it takes to be a dog man: 1. A dog at weight. 2. Amount. 3. Reference. YIS, I.M.
