Ori-pei dog breeder?
Does anyone know of an ori-pei dog breeder somewhere in the Ohio/PA area? I have heard such horror stories of buying dogs at pet stores and am in search of a reputable breeder. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks ladies 
Re: Ori-pei dog breeder?
Also, because it has no breed standard, nothing you read about this type of dog is necessarily accurate, it may take the tempermant, size, appearance etc of either breed or some mixture of the two. So, don't take any claims that are made about them for granted (that they are quiet or good tempered or anything like that).
If you really want this specific mix, you should look at petfinder or at shelters to find one that needs a good home.
Additionally, if your friend is dead-set on getting one of these, and none of the thousands of pug mixes or shar-pei mixes on petfinder will do, have her check www.fci.be which is the website for the international group that does recognize the ori-pei as a breed. AKC doesn't recognize it, and it's going to be harder to find a quality breeder because of that, but if she really wants a good breeder, find one who only breeds titled dogs (there's a big difference between titled and papered) and only sells spayed/neutered puppies.
