A man is expected to live after being stabbed in the chest in the Edmonds neighbourhood Tuesday night. The victim, a man in his late 30s, was stabbed once in the 7700-block of 18th Avenue, at Canada Way, at 10 p.m., said Burnaby RCMP Staff Sgt. Major John Buis. A woman, who was not involved, called 911. BC Ambulance took him to Royal Columbian Hospital in serious condition. While initially the injury was believed life-threatening, as of Wednesday morning, the man was expected to live, Buis said. Police were planning to interview the victim Wednesday to determine what happened and to get a description of the suspect. It’s possible that there is more than one suspect as two people were seen running away from the area. “We don’t know if they were both involved or just one,” Buis said. Investigators had yet to determine a motive or whether it was a random act. “We think it’s targeted, there’s no reason to believe it’s random.”

Southgate concept gets positive reviews Open house planned for June Wanda Chow
wchow@burnabynewsleader.com
The draft concept plan for the proposed Southgate development in South Burnaby garnered positive reviews from city council Monday. Mayor Derek Corrigan said developer Ledingham McAllister had been through a planning process with city staff and council that was “arduous to say the least.” The resulting draft concept plan is “something I feel proud to take out to the community,” Corrigan said. “I think everybody’s property value is going to increase by this.” The 48-acre property is located on the former Safeway distribution centre and dairy plant site between 15th and 18th streets and 11th and 14th avenues. It also includes two city-owned properties, 7701 and 7679 18th St., to create an east-west connection
to the City in the Park neighbourhood and the Edmonds SkyTrain station, says a city staff report. A north-south connection to the Highgate shopping area on Kingsway is proposed to come via 16th Street and through a BC Housing property at 7121 14th Ave. It proposes several different forms of housing, including up to 20 towers ranging in height from 19 to 46 storeys. At its heart will be a five-acre park. Coun. Colleen Jordan noted the park will be owned and operated by city hall for all Burnaby residents, not just those who live in the new development. The earlier preliminary concept called for a large rectangular lake in the park, Jordan noted in an interview. But that has since been changed to a smaller lake connected to a meandering stream that provides more usable green space. The park will include a 16th Street Plaza featuring

a water feature or spray park, pavilions for shelter and shade, and areas for bocce, chess and other court games, according to draft panel displays for a planned open house in June. It will also feature an adventure play area with a stream, climbing hill and “winding pathways through natural tree groves.” Other public spaces include connections to Ernie Winch Park, a 17th Street Park with an
adventure playground, water feature and “urban agriculture.” Gateway House, on the west end of the site at 18th Street, and roughly 13th Avenue (to be dubbed Southgate Boulevard in the development), would be a facility that could be used for childcare, community space, a café and recreational uses. Shops and services would be on street level along 16th Street and Southgate Crescent. The north end of
16th Street would feature local businesses, restaurants and a grocery store while the south end would offer flexible live/work spaces. The project is expected to take 15 to 20 years to complete, with several buildings completed each year. The draft display panels suggest there could be 23 phases to the project, starting with The Gateway located at Griffiths Drive and Southgate Boulevard which includes the eastern access for the Millennium
Bridge pedestrian overpass. A dog park and community garden is also proposed for that phase. Coun. Pietro Calendino noted the skyscrapers are “modest” compared to what is being proposed for other areas of the city. For instance, Brentwood mall could have towers as tall as 70 storeys. Southgate is also proposed to have rental as well as affordable and nonmarket housing, the latter if senior governments come to the table with funding assistance, Calendino said. He credited city staff with steering the developer toward a direction that “council would like to see and the community is more likely to accept.” Coun. Dan Johnston called it a “holistic vision for the Edmonds community.” The concept includes plans to daylight a creek, increase park space and be pedestrian and bicycle friendly, he noted. “It’s a real improvement for this forgotten corner of the city.”
Motion Picture Act sets out rules for film distribution ⫸
continued from FRONT PAGE
Dumont, who wasn’t present during the seizure, believes they were all free DVDs offered as a “bonus” with adult magazines such as Penthouse and Hustler, leaving her magazine rack almost empty. “I don’t think it’s right they’re censoring movies when people can watch anything on TV and
online,” she said. “Children can see that [material at home].” She’s got the support of her friend Tony, who wouldn’t give his last name but said he had been in the adult store business for many years. “In the Constitution we’re guaranteed freedom of speech and we’re not getting it,” Tony said.
He said the censorship doesn’t make sense when all sorts of explicit material is freely available elsewhere. “Just watch the TV at night and on the Internet, it’s crazy. So [Consumer Protection BC is] living in a dreamland, in the past.” A Consumer Protection BC spokeswoman confirmed by email
that it has an “open investigation” into the matter. “In fairness to the licensee and to maintain the integrity of the investigative processes, it would be inappropriate for me to share details at this time. However, I can tell you that the Motion Picture Act lays out various responsibilities and requirements for businesses involved in the
distribution and exhibition of films in B.C. “This law also gives Consumer Protection BC the authority to inspect these businesses to assess compliance with the legislation.” As of Wednesday, Dumont had not yet decided whether or not to appeal the seizure. twitter.com/WandaChow

Third time unlucky for trio It was third time unlucky for a trio of male suspects believed responsible for a string of recent break-and-enter crimes across the Lower Mainland. Burnaby RCMP’s Strike Force identified the group and on March 20 started conducting surveillance of their home, according to the detachment’s most recent monthly report. Officers watched as the suspects drove to a residential neighbourhood where one suspect tried to kick in the back door of a home. When the alarm went off, they fled and drove to another neighbourhood. Once there, a suspect again tried to break in to a home. Again, he set off an alarm, scaring the trio off. They drove to yet another area where they managed to kick in the back door of a home, only to encounter the owner of the house.
This time they ran to their car only to be stopped by police and arrested. “These arrests have resulted in a significant decrease in residential Break and Enters in the Lower Mainland,” the report said. The suspects were all charged with attempted break-and-enter and break-and-enter and are awaiting trial.

City orders clean-up The city of Burnaby wants the owner of an unsightly mess at 7609 Coldicutt St. to clean it up. Or city crews will move in and do it themselves. The mess includes overgrown vegetation, domestic garbage, furniture, used building materials, personal belongings and two derelict vehicles. Two outbuildings and two decks on the property are also in disrepair and have collapsed. Acting on a complaint, city inspectors visited the property on Feb. 28 and compliance letters were mailed to the owner on March 5 and April 8. Another letter was delivered by hand on April 29. City staff, along with a coordinator from Fraser Health, talked with the owner in person, without success. Burnaby’s engineering department estimates the clean-up will cost about $22,000, which would be billed to its owner. If that bill isn’t paid by the end of the year, it’s added to the owner’s property taxes.

PHOTO OF THE WEEK: Local photographer Arthur Simpkins appears to have discovered a friendly creature from outer space in this shot he took on the New Westminster boardwalk. He titled the shot ‘River Peeper’ on his blog (arthursimpkins.com/blog), which captures the subject well.
Sunny warning Canadians love the sun so much, it’s killing us. After being cooped up for months at a time to shelter from the snow and cold and, in the case of southwestern British Columbia, interminable rain, we rejoice at the first days of warm sunshine. By July we’re positively basking in it. And that’s leading to an alarming increase in skin cancer, according to a report released Wednesday by the Canadian Cancer Society, Statistics Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada. The report says there will be about 6,500 new cases of malignant melanoma diagnosed in Canada this year. That’s the deadliest, most insidious form of skin cancer that will kill more than 1,000 Canadians. Another 76,100 cases of nonmelanoma skin cancers will also be diagnosed. Those are less serious and can usually be treated in the doctor’s office. Unlike many other forms of cancer, the incidence of skin cancer is actually going up rather than down. For men, the incidence rate went up two per cent between 1986 and 2010. For women it increased 1.5 per cent. Mortality rates also increased. Those are sobering statistics worth thinking about the next time the seven-day weather forecast shows a solid run of glowing, golden orbs. Especially since it’s so easy to prevent skin cancer. While it might be a little much to ask people to stay indoors, it’s not a big deal to put on that shirt, roll down those sleeves, slap on that hat, slop on that sunscreen. And pay heed to that UV index that’s become a standard feature of most weather reports to avoid the sun’s rays when they’re at their most damaging. A little summertime prevention will mean being able to enjoy a lot more sunny seasons to come.

Slick policies fuel gas hikes A poll conducted by Insights West, in conjunction with Black Press, shows that high gas prices are having a significant effect on people’s day-to-day lives. Those polled identified the two major culprits – all levels of government, through taxation policies; and the oil companies. The fact B.C.’s gas prices are consistently the highest in the country is due solely to taxation. In particular, the provincial carbon tax, which adds almost seven cents per litre to the cost of gasoline, and the TransLink tax of 17 cents per litre, push gas prices much higher than they are in other parts of Canada. Drivers in Metro Vancouver pay a minimum of 41 cents per litre in taxation. Those are only two of the many government hands in our pockets when we fill up. The provincial government takes another cut, which is actually lower in Metro Vancouver than in other parts of the province. That’s because the province gives some of its taxation share to TransLink. The federal government also takes a large share – 10 cents per litre, plus GST. It charges GST on the taxes, as well as
Frank Bucholtz the product. This is unfair and should not be permitted. As all taxes are rolled into the price of a litre of gas or diesel, many people are unaware of this naked tax grab. Ottawa is proud of its take. It just announced how it plans to “share” this ill-gotten revenue with local governments over the next 10 years. In other words, there will be no tax relief any time soon on that front. Those surveyed by Insights West said they are driving less and using transit, or walking, more. These are reasonable alternatives to high gas prices, but the transit alternative doesn’t always work for people where I live south of the Fraser. The number of regular transit users is small, and most who do use transit use SkyTrain as part of the trip. Few depend solely on buses. This is because of a limited number of bus routes.

Most buses do not go quickly or frequently to places that many residents regularly travel to. The high taxes also lead to behaviour which hurts the overall community, notably cross-border shopping. When TransLink boosted its tax to 17 cents per litre, the effect was immediate and notable. The trips across the border also put the lie to the provincial claim that the carbon tax has reduced gas consumption. When cross-border gas shopping and fuel-efficient vehicles are factored in, it is doubtful if there has been any significant decline. However, the recent prices of $1.50 per litre have reduced driving, as the survey indicates. The oil companies come in for criticism from poll respondents, and while not all of that is deserved, the companies do not have completely clean hands. The price of fuel regularly jumps up late at night – for no good reason, other than to force people heading to work in the morning who need gas to pay more. I witnessed this firsthand at the sole gas station at Vancouver Airport Monday night. The

price was $1.46 at 11:15 p.m. When I left the airport just after midnight, the price was $1.51. The prices almost always fall by four to five cents a litre by the noon hour. Those polled say oil companies often raise prices before long weekends. Another area where oil companies reap unconscionable profits is with premium grades of gasoline. While U.S. oil companies tend to charge 10 cents a gallon more for premium, in Canada, the price difference is 10 cents a litre – or about 38 cents per (U.S.) gallon. They clearly take advantage of people who do not pay attention to the difference between a litre and a gallon. If government wasn’t so complicit in keeping gas prices high, it might be worthwhile to ask it to be more vigilant about some of the unfairness in pricing. But when it comes to gas and diesel prices, all the players, including all levels of government, have dirty hands. Frank Bucholtz is the editor of the Langley Times.

COMMENT
Taxis and HandyDart are not created equal Re: Extra $1m for HandyDart plowed into taxis Handydart recently sent a wheelchair cab to pick me up on my return trip. The driver loaded me on my scooter into the back of the cab and DID NOT tie down my scooter or supply a seat belt! No concern whatsoever that if we were in an accident I and my scooter would go flying! I contacted HandyDart and, as usual, they promised to contact the taxi service. This has happened so many times over the years it’s not funny. I have told HandyDart not to send a wheelchair cab to pick me up and they threaten that I might have to wait for a few hours to get home. Even though they never inform me when I get picked up from home that there might be a problem getting back. Sue Tomlin •••••
There are two major problems with the HandyDart system. Since the system was revamped a few years ago and the dispatch centralized more problems have occurred because of bad organization at the management and the dispatcher levels. I use the system and there are many times I am the only passenger and arrive at my location where there is another HandyDart with someone being dropped off at the same time for the same reason who also lives down the street from me. The other problem is that many users of the system treat it as if it was their personal taxi. They are not ready to be picked up and force the driver to go looking for them, sometimes wasting up to 20 minutes. Many clients don’t bother phoning to cancel their ride and therefore cause even more delays. I believe if the system were better organized and passengers made accountable for missed rides it would become more cost effective. Carmelo Balbo •••••
We need to return the TransLink Board to the mayors. At least they were elected and know their territory. More democratic. HandyDART is a door-to-door service. Taxis
are a curb-to-curb service and inadequate for some disabled persons. John Beeching •••••
TransLink COO Doug Kelsey is just another reason TransLink needs to go! This management doesn’t have a clue what its customers need. Jon Argitos •••••
Whoever this Kelsey person is doesn’t know how the clients of HandyDart are treated. Just the other day a client was sent a taxi and he did not tie her down properly, and she said she was in pain all day the next day. Shame on rich people that don’t know what it is like for the common person low down on the ladder to have to get around. Shirley Stadnyk •••••
Just more offloading of services to the private sector. Let’s free up some more money by making cuts in TransLink administration. Helmut Saggau •••••
My mom is a thrice-weekly user of HandyDart, and she hates when they send taxis for her instead of the bus. The taxi drivers are, 90 per cent of the time, rude/lazy/ignorant compared to the bus drivers who are always very helpful and courteous. Angela Oschefski —online comments burnabynewsleader.com
WE WILL NOT LOSE THIS FIGHT May 25th marks the day my family immigrated to Canada eight years ago. Education. That’s the sole reason my parents left their family, friends, successful careers, and established lives to come to Canada. They wanted my brothers and me to have the opportunity to reach our greatest potential. It hasn’t been easy; they’ve had to start from zero. I’ve watched them struggle and work endlessly to give us the best life.
In Jordan, where we came from, the education system is very corrupt. I’m one of the lucky few who received an excellent education, as my parents could afford private school. But unfortunately, many children don’t have that option. They have to go to public school, where there is little funding for programs and teachers; where classrooms are over-sized; where special needs students don’t receive assistance. With the recent actions of the B.C. government, I’m deeply concerned that this kind of corrupted education system is where we’re headed. I’m disgusted and disappointed by the government’s attempts to oppress the teachers who have worked for excellent-quality public education for all children in our province. This attack on our educators doesn’t just concern me as a student and immigrant, but also because some of my favourite people in the world are teachers. Besides the fantastic influence of my mom and dad, the young woman I am today has been nurtured by passionate, intelligent human beings I proudly call my teachers. I will not allow the government to destroy the quality public education system that immigrants like my parents came to Canada for. I will not allow them to demolish the justice my teachers have and continue to strive for within our public education system. Teachers are some of the strongest, most dedicated people I know, and I am confident they will not surrender to the government’s threats. I will support them as they continue to fight for a fair and successful public education system for myself and all future children of this province. Watch out, government—we will not lose this fight!

headroom and some room to stretch out either piloting or co-piloting the Micra. Under hard acceleration, primarily from the 4-speed automatic, the Micra is quite vocal. You can really hear the engine noise intrude the cabin. It’s not a performance machine like the Nissan GT-R, where you want to hear as much ruckus as you can. However, when cruising at highway speeds – without the lead foot acceleration – my driving partner and I noticed how quiet the cabin is. Wind noise is kept at bay and it’s serene. Furthermore, it was an incredibly blustery day when we took these pint-sized four-doors out. Needless to say, you could feel the swagger of the car at highway speeds. But in its defense, larger vehicles felt the wrath of Mother Nature’s blow, too.
While very affordable, the Micra isn’t “cheap” in execution. Even the knobs on the roll down windows have a soft touch to them. And there are metallic accents to break up the otherwise bland black interior. I certainly wasn’t disappointed when captaining the Micra. Even though that might sound like a backhanded compliment, it’s not. As far as small cars go, it’s functional, funky and has great value. Whether you’re looking for a vehicle that gets you from point A to B – minus all the options – or said vehicle with a few extras, the 2015 Micra might be the car for you. Summed up, the Micra is affordable transportation with amiable drivability, an easy-on-the eyes interior and overall a bubbly personality. alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

The traditional one week in a media test drive car offers a good chance to get to know it but two weeks is even better! Recently, I got a chance to spend a week in the base Mazda3 and a second week in the higher performance Mazda3 GT. This real-life experience driving each day solidified my positive thoughts on many parts of the car but also highlighted a few shortcomings.
Looks Mazda has done a great job of producing a compact car that looks stylish and upscale in both the sedan and hatchback forms. The hatchback version, called Sport, I test drove was the middle GS trim, which is where most people in this segment will typically shop. The GS starts at $19,695 for the sedan and $20,695 for the Sport (hatchback) version. The top GT sedan I drove is much more expen-
sive, starting at $25,855 for the sedan and $26,855 for the Sport. There are some nice upgrades to the GT, like LED marker lights and tail light, Xenon headlamps, bigger 18-inch alloy wheels, versus 16-inches on the lower trim levels. Then there is the added power from the larger engine. A fully kitted out GT runs up to the $30,000 mark. Yes, compact cars have more features then ever but the price has moved up accordingly.

Verdict I have mixed feelings about the Mazda3. I do like the engineering that went into this car, the lighter platform, the impressive direct injection engines, great styling and comfortable cabin. The dash and interior looks upscale and in some cases is expensive. The FM radio reception needs to be fixed and that back seat is claustrophobic for small children. I’m usually drawn to more powerful cars like the GT version but in this case, the base 2.0L is so good, you might want to save a few dollars and get the cheaper car. If you want the best Mazda has to offer, the GT will not disappoint zack.spencer@ drivewaybc.ca

At the heart of both the sedan and GT is the same great “Skyactiv” platform developed by Mazda that is lighter than the previous car and can be matched to two powerful and fun to use engines. The base engine is a 155hp 2.0L direct injection engine. This engine surprised me with the amount of very usable mid-range torque. The big-
ger 184hp 2.5L version of the same engine has more grunt but I’m not sure it is worth the added money, the smaller 2.0L is that good. Yes the GT comes with the bigger wheels and tires, plus a sport button to make the automatic transmission livelier but this is the only gearbox offered on the GT, no manual. For the car with more power and road-handling prowess, I’m surprised the manual is not offered here, it’s only offered with the 2.0L engine.

The interior of the middle GS and high end GT trim is worth the extra cost, over the basic GX, as it features a centre mounted screen on the dash for things like radio, telephone and navigation features. This is activated by a controller in the centre of the two front seats and is easy to master. The radio reception I found was rather weak, the FM signal faded in and out, as did the volume and treble. Both versions of the Mazda3 performed this way. The higher end GT model comes with a few extras like automatic climate control, a small heads-up display in front of the driver’s position and optional leather seats. The back seats are comfortable but the doors are high and the side windows small, making outward visibility a problem for kids.

Runs, walks and warrior fun Burnaby native Mike Santorelli of the Vancouver Canucks will be among the supporters taking part in the Run Up for Down Syndrome on Sunday, June 1 at Simon Fraser University.

Participants can have their photos taken with Santorelli and enter a draw for an autographed jersey by signing up as a Triple-21 partner (more info at http://dsrf.org/Triple21). Top fundraisers will be entered into draws for free WestJet

Woman 2 Warrior More than 400 women channeled their inner warrior Sunday to help send kids with physical and cognitive disabilities to summer camp. The second annual Woman2Warrior race at Swangard Stadium raised more than $158,700 for BC Easter Seals Camps. “We’re thrilled with the enthusiastic response we received for this year’s Woman2Warrior,” said Clare Chamley, the director of special events for the British Columbia Lions Society for Children with Disabilities. “We nearly doubled the number of participants from our inaugural year.” Teams had to run five kms of trails, track and grass through Central Park, overcoming 12 obstacles like rope walls and water hazards along the way.

It’s been 30 years since the merchants along Hastings Street in Burnaby Heights first “tipped their hats” to thank their loyal customers. So this year’s Hats Off Day on Saturday, June 7 is going back to the beginning by celebrating the “totally awesome ’80s.”
parade trappings of clowns, decorated floats and vehicles and marching bands like the Burnaby North Vikings band, the procession is a chance for local community groups, organizations, non-profits and Heights’ merchants to have some fun presenting themselves in a 1980s theme to crowds lining the sidewalks and perched on the curbs. see LoTS of greAT fooD, A22

And while shoulder pads, acid-washed denim, leg warmers and parachute pants won’t be making a permanent return to the Heights, the same spirit of community that fuelled that first celebration lives on. As always, the day kicks off promptly at 10 a.m. with a community parade along Hastings Street from Beta Avenue to Boundary Road. In addition to the usual

Local builder Portrait Homes is garnering nation-wide attention for their commitment to customer service. “We are once again honoured to announce that Portrait Homes is the proud recipient of the 2014 Avid Diamond Award for the best new home customer experience in Canada,” says Portrait Chief Operating Officer Dave Wallace. “Our entire team works exceptionally hard at creating a stellar customer
experience and this is a great way to measure and acknowledge the effort. We were quite pleased to see a score of 91-plus per cent willingness to refer and wish to thank all of our customers for choosing to live in a Portrait community!” The Avid Awards recognize North American companies that provide excellent customer service to their homeowners. Portrait also won an Avid Gold Award for Best Customer Experience in British Columbia, and has taken home Avid Awards in the past for their customer service, including an
NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
Avid Diamond Award in 2012 and an Avid Service Award – Best Employees in Customer Satisfaction Nationwide for Wayne Houghton, won earlier this year. “We are thrilled to honour the winners of the 2014 Avid Awards, who have all set the highest standards for home quality and customer service across North America,” says Paul Cardis, CEO of Avid Ratings. “These awards give future buyers the confidence that there is a builder in their region who will deliver an exceptional new home and buying experience.” Portrait is currently selling its Panorama Woods project in Surrey, a collection of three-bedroom townhomes.

Forge Properties’ Royce features West Coast-style architecture, spacious decks and terraces, gourmet kitchens and luxurious bathrooms. Perfectly situated in White Rock, Royce is close to shopping, dining and recreation opportunities.
Gorgeous views at Forge Properties’ Royce By Kerry Vital
Inspired by White Rock’s stunning scenery, Forge Properties’ Royce is an elegant addition to the neighbourhood, with plenty of curb appeal as it moves into the final cladding stage. Offering spacious homes and a prime location, Royce has proven incredibly
popular. “We like to think of it as a true White Rock landmark,” says project marketing manager Brandon Trent. “It’s a one-of-a-kind building with West Coast architecture featuring a blend of modern and natural materials, including B.C. timber posts.” The development takes full advantage of the location. “The building is designed to cascade towards the ocean and maximize stunning ocean views over top of a lush landscaped courtyard,” Trent says. Each home has an expansive terrace or patio, affording beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean or over the courtyard.
Inside, oversized windows and nine-foot ceilings in the main living areas add to the sense of spaciousness. Gourmet kitchens feature floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances and distinctive quartz countertops, complemented by an integral Carrera marble backsplash. The space is lit by under-cabinet task lighting, pot lights and chic pendants over the kitchen island. “These kitchens live like a single-family home,” says Trent. The luxurious bathrooms are spa-like and relaxing, with quartz countertops, recessed pot lighting and large-format porcelain tile with mosaic-style polished marble accents.
HURRY! LAST WEEKEND
The ensuite features a walk-in shower, separate soaker tub (most homes) with largeformat marble tile flooring with a mosaic herringbone-style marble accent. Homeowners at Royce will have access to The Royce Club, an amenities space with a fireside lounge with kitchen area and library, and a fitness centre with yoga studio. Venturing off the property you’ll find everything you need, from shopping and dining to leisure and recreation opportunities. Combined with the gorgeous homes, Royce has something for everyone. “With so many great floorplans to choose from, both singles and couples can find a home at the right size to fit their lifestyle with a true White Rock address,” says Trent. Royce was the recipient of four Georgie Awards earlier this year, which honour the best in British Columbia’s residential construction industry. Homes start at $299,900. For more information, visit www.royceliving.com, call 604-538-8028 or visit the Presentation Gallery at 14855 Thrift Avenue, open daily between 12 and 5 p.m.

Collie Doodle Puppies (Collie x Poodle) Born Feb 26. Mom is a Rough Collie (45 lbs) and Dad is a small Standard Poodle (50 lbs). Both have health clearances (eyes, hips, elbows). 2 very curly black females avail. We have bred this litter special to create the perfect family companion (intelligent, gentle, easy to train, always willing to please, happy indoors and outdoors, good with children and animals, low to no shed). These puppies will not need a heavy hand to train. They are sweet, kind and sensitive puppies. They will be very similar in looks and in nature to the Golden Doodle only smaller, calmer and will mature sooner. We are a 4H (agility, obedience, showmanship) family and our dogs are a part of our home and life and we wish the same for our puppies. Please consider the time and commitment needed to raise a dog and you will have our support and guidance for life. Pups will have shots and deworming. Reduced to $850.
