That's the strangest thing I've ever seen - and I'm not liking it!! I have to read through it some more, but it doesn't look good. Is this what you do at 4AM??

Well I got up to check on the puppies as usual to make sure they are all doing good thru the night. I decided to do some web surfing and ran across this and it made me so upset I came here to see if anyone else knows what this site is all about.

Oh No I hope thats not right

havent looked at the whole site, looks bad though

Joeysmom · 12-30-2007, 08:07 AM

That can't be right.... Prestigeous Yorkies is a member here, I think...maybe she will see the post? She's one of the "ads"

I just saw a post by PrestigeousYT on the Show forum. I'm sure that site is not for bidding.... don't know what it means, but maybe someone should ask her?

they dont sell pups, its a breeder directory, linking back to the breeders site.

PawSitesOnline Mission Statement

PawSitesOnline is dedicated to be a connection between breeders of dogs and cats and buyers of puppies and kittens.
Our mission is to educate buyers and sellers as well as breeders of the ethics of buying and selling online compared to pet shops. First of all we want to say that we do NOT like puppy-mills. Puppy mills are for greedy people that breed only for money and usually don't care enough about their animals.
We believe that anyone who just breed for the money, should not be in the dog and cat breeding business at all!

Most puppy-mills live off of pet stores buying their back yard breeding, so no, we don't like pet stores either and that is why we started PawSitesOnline.com, a place where buyers could buy their pets directly from a breeder. This way you can check out the breeder, credentials, how the dogs live and everything else that is important before you buy a dog.

Thanks, Kimberly. I was sure it must be something like that. The couple of breeder names I recognized I thought were reputable, so I didn't think it was an auction site.

Happy New Year and hugs to the furry ones at your house!

OK I am confused....
I was looking and there are bidding tabs right there...
It looks like a auction site for dogs??

I read what you posted Kimberly but I am not seeing that they are not auctioning off dogs here.

I have never seen this page with the bid tabs before, I went to our listing and clicked on the bid and it brings up a page to sign in and chat with other breeders.
I do not like the Bid tabs just as I am sure other breeders who are listed there doesn't either
I am going to contact the site to see what on earth this is.

Ok I am glad

I hope it get worked out.
I was Kinda Freaking a little. Scary thoughts of respected breeders and bids and all..I hope it is just a glitch

PrestigeousYT · 12-30-2007, 10:20 AM

OK
we sent them (Pawsites) an email asking what this is about.
And told them we do not like being listed with a bid tab beside our listing.
when I filled out their form to send email it said I should hear something within 24 hours from them.
When I get a response I will share with you guys what on earth this is.

Thanks for the heads up

I sure didn't know what that was all about, but I agree it doesn't look good with a bid tab there. I hope they get back to you and correct this. I hadn't even seen your name there till someone brought it up, but I'm glad to see you trying to fix how it looks.

PrestigeousYT · 12-30-2007, 10:52 AM

I heard back from them and they are taking the bid tabs down
they do not auction pets
From what I understand it was to bid for better placement on ads
