| http://www.puppymatch4u.com Crossposting To Breeders/Puppies for Sale Personally, I don't like the looks of it and I have been showering this lady with other breeders closer to us (many of whom are on this forum), but she called me today asking what I thought. I told her my worries, but I figure for good measure I'll get on here and get some feedback from you all! haha Has anyone heard of, dealt with, or know of someone who had dealt with http://www.puppymatch4u.com?

| doesn't look that bad to me...there are few breeds and few pups and if they are raised in homes and not sold to pet stores it might be okay. i would go yourself to check out their environment and homes...ask to come see their breeding area and home and if they freak out, you'll know they are a mill or BYB. the BBB has accredited them so check them out on there as well...just don't trust the internet or a website...go see for yourself!! |

| This is a broker. They have puppies in different "homes" (probably kennels) and "match" them to the owners. I wouldn't even consider purchasing a puppy from here! Tell your friend to support local reputable breeders and their practices and do NOT purchase from brokers!

| I've seen this website before. They are puppy brokers and reputable breeders don't sell through brokers. Their puppies are either from puppy mills or backyard breeders. |

| Quote: Everyone should do a search on the internet as part of researching a breeder before they buy a puppy. As you found out, it is very easy to do. | |

| Thanks everyone! Believe me, I in no way would EVER buy a dog frmo whoever these people are. I'm a research freak. This lady....the more people I have behind me saying "NO!" the better. haha She trusts my judgement, but it's nice to have this to show her so she can realy see these people are not a good idea. haha
