Skip, you misread my post or I didn't word it right. I'm not talking about selling puppies from that $5000 pup already. All I was trying to say is that the $5000 may be a lot of money right now but when my PRESENT dog has pups I will get that money back. BUT ... I'm not rushing things along with him just to make some quick money so I can pay for an expensive puppy.
Most people would be happy to know that they have 13 people in advance willing to take a puppy let alone 63 people. I wouldn't even consider some of those 63 people for one of my puppies. When he is ready to be bred I will decide in advance who gets a puppy. When you have 63 prospective homes it is pretty easy to place a litter into great homes, not just homes.
I consider the $5000 only a partial risk. Just about everything bred from Neubrand dogs turns out to be a nice dog and worth it's price.
USRC Preident Andreas Mueller once told me that beautiful puppies never grow up to be ugly dogs. And ugly pups don't turn into beautiful dogs. If someone is asking $5000 for a puppy you can bet your money they are beautiful puppies
