After my spaniels passed away, I was thinking about this, and owning 4 acres of woodland but no seven foot fence, I checked the top breeders’ web sites, and some beautiful ex showing dogs were available for adoption. I urge you to check them. Talking personally with the owner is better than the home checkers clipboard.
I ended up adopting rescues by knowing one of the foreign group, and didn’t get the strict home check, and the second mongrel was from a dodgy crowded local rescue , who just talked to me, saw my other dog with the potential new boy, and used her common sense and took my money.
I wouldn’t dream of sueing them .
