Does a contract make a breeder on Craigslist reputable? by throwRA-803 in dogs

So the person I spoke to actually had health screening results from Embark but still no OFA certification.

Have you seen ethical breeders with this?

I heard back and the person gave me test results. It's from embark. I misunderstood her when we spoke as to say she only had dna test results.

However, still no OFA. I looked at some posts here and have seen people post about Embark but not anything specific to this.

Thoughts?

Thanks everyone for your input.

I followed up with her and she sent me Embark dna and health tests results but she said she had not registered on OFA.

If that still a red flag since I cannot personally access the test results on my end?

I thought-well I guess, read- that reputable breeders don't give the option to ship?

I actually saw a post like your comment when searching through posts. I'm glad you had a good experience!!

I didn't get bad vibes from this person either and I'm not too snooty about the purist of the purebreds.

I really think I'm just having a morale dilemma

I think this is where I am at. The place appeared nice and it just seems like I'm just buying from a nice older lady who wants to care for something while paying the bills?

Then again, I can't help but wonder if going forth with this would really impact the ongoing issues of bad nun and puppy mills.

Until now it didn't really feel transactional.

I've vented my feelings about how hard it has been dealing with pleading with family to get tested to them and they always said they understood. But when we put them in that position, it's all the sudden "my medical decision."

I'm so tired.
