I'm not sure it is a mickey take though. There have been concerns about pictures being stolen from the internet to advertise non existent dogs. People then buy the dog for it to be shipped and it never is...how people can do this is beyond me :rant:lalena said:
at the end of the day, though, surely in any circumstances its far better, and reassuring for the breeder, to get off the pc and actually handle the litter yourself? its not as if you can feed, walk etc your new puppy online, is it? so, while i deplore the actions of these con artists, i think that those getting conned are at least partially to blame. of course sometimes theres little choice when it comes to imports, but most people when looking to bring in fresh lines, study this carefully and aim for offspring from particular parents etc, they dont go eeny meeny miny mo, oooh i'll go for that one. this careful selection means that theyll be dealing with reputable show/breeders, who in turn will be equally keen that their pups go to good owners.
The puggle is a cross between a beagle and a pug. The chinese imperial from what I can find is a minature Shih Tzu :blink:dessie said:
I do not understand how can anybody buy a puppy without actually seeing the litter and where it came from. Importing is a different story, you do go to the top well known breeder, and if you cannot actually fly over you would expect flood of pics and videos. So there is no concern they keep the money and disapear.lalena said:very very sick, greedy, morally lacking people do this i'm afraid
