actually if you think about it, HIPTRENDS (and the people behind it) are NOT puppy millers, because theyre not the breeder of the pups/dogs theyre selling... theyre mere TRADERS. they buy (at low cost) and sells them (at high cost).. theres nothing wrong with that. its actually depends on how well the prospective buyers are knowledgeable about the breed (and its price range). that is why buyer information (about his target dog) is primary important.
