Jac, I guess we're co-crusaders!

About pricing: how many of our clients are aware of the price of, say, a standard poodle??! Or how about Yorkies selling for over $1000?
It feels like an impediment, but since most of our clientele are Retriever-lovers, do they even know that non-shedding breeds almost always cost more? I know I've written this before but I absolutely fit that category. 6 yrs ago, before I knew of Labradoodles, our family was making the transition from Labs to std. poodles and it was a HUGE sticker shock!
