Times are definitely tough everywhere. It costs a lot to raise a litter of pups- stud fees, feed, shots, dewormings, papers, vet bills, etc. We usually only break even when we sell a litter. One way I help others breeders out is I recommend them to prospective buyers. If I don't have what they want then, I" Pay it forward"! I like to hook people up with good hounds. I usually remember folks in different areas that I have dealt with. We can help each other out of these tough times by working together. Treat folks honestly and fairly in all your hound deals, and I guarantee the next time they want a hound they will call you, and then send their friends to call you too. The key is how you treat folks. There is still folks wanting hounds, but many can't afford to travel too far to get one. Sometimes they have to save up to buy one. Thanks, and God Bless, Amy
