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.

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

Re: Christmas Presents with Waggy Tails and the reality!
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.
