Perhaps it is just my Yankee Thriftiness at work here; but I get the distinct 
impression that The s/n agreement/requirement from a breeder who charges what 
these people consider to be "BIG BUCKS," leads them to feel "ILL USED" by 
someone who is simply trying to corner the market on the dog supply!!!!!!
