Christmas Presents with Waggy Tails and the reality!

[triomum]

I couldn't believe this post when I read it (or maybe I could believe it but would prefer not too!!!). Yes the man that bought the dogs is a complete idiot (to put it mildly!) but what about the breeder - who in their right mind sells four dogs to the same person at the same time - unless it's for the money? When we bought Jasper and Nina together (brother and sister), our breeder deliberated for a long time before she finally agreed that we could have them together - she explained that it would be easier in terms of them settling in but harder in terms of training them together etc. And ours weren't bought as presents either - it was something we'd thought long and hard about. When is 'someone' in authority going to make it very very difficult for pups to be sold in this way - it makes my blood boil!! At least they are in a safe place now.

Rant over.

Actually Julie I had exactly the same thought as you a couple of days ago when I first read this post about the breeder. And they are in the best place you're right.

True but he aslo did take them back which many wouldnt have done especially four so we can forgive him.

Hmm I had assumed that he had got all four dogs from four different breeders.....now this is quite worrying as it could mean the pups just born are related

I know you all must be busy, but any news on Storm & Roses' scans yet?
Here's hoping that they are both ok. (I hope Storm's not going to be another little mum to be!)

love Alison & Charlie XXX

New threads started Alison

I will be updating the donations and expenses information later when I get to speak to Glenys and find out the cost of the scans etc

I was shocked when i first read this. How could any reputable breeder allow anyone to take four puppies to live in the same house, unless it was a puppy farm - they don`t care.
All the dogs and puppies will now be able to find new forever homes where they will truely be wanted and loved. Good luck to them all.
