Price of these puppies has been cut in half. I am not a breeder. This was a "bucket list" item for me. I am glad I did it, but I did not expect my female to give birth to 16 puppies though. Just looking to make my $$ back for what I have put into them thus far. What I can tell you for sure, is that the temperament of both the mother and father of these puppies are unreal. Very docile and well socialized with other dogs. Wonderful family pets. Great with children. If you introduce people into your home, they will be very calm. At the same time, they will protect your home with no regard for themselves.
