There are unfortunately a lot of bad breeders out there and I am sure the new law won't stop them, but at least they are trying to do something. Researching the breeder is the only way to make sure you are buying from a reputable breeder imo. It sounds like you did your research well, I wish more people would do this! We wouldn't need laws like these to be passed then because nobody would buy from the bad breeders and they would stop doing it.
I would LOVE to see pictures of your dogs Big T! :D So glad you enjoyed the photos, thank you for stopping by!
