A couple of days ago, a friend of ours invited our 5 mth old EM over for a playdate with her 3 yr old EM. They got on fantastically, as my puppy has so far done on all of his playdates (he had one today at our house, in fact).. This EM came with registration papers and pedigree information, and was as sweet, charming and friendly as could be, but looked NOTHING like an EM. She looked like a Great Dane crossed with a Bulldog, or possibly a boxer. She was as tall as our Great Danes were -- and all leg. She had a deep chest and a pronounced tuck. Her neck was long, and just slightly thicker than a GD's. Whilst she had a lovely mask, she had virtually no wrinkles anywhere, with a muzzle that appeared 'boxer-y'. Our puppy was almost as broad as she was. She also had a gay tail and straight-ish stifles. The overall look was attractive, but NOT remotely to breed standards.
Evidently, this breeder has been in business for years, produces several litters a year, sells to anyone with the money, and does not provide contracts. SIGH!
