Well, As far as how much they want. The ad in the newspaper said that she wanted 400.00 obo. I called and after talking to her and getting backround info on the pup, I asked if she would take 200.00 for him and if it didn't work out with us would she be willing to take him back. (If I had a pup I needed to rehome, that's what I would want) She originally said yes to the 200.00 and that she would be will to take him back, if we were not the perfect home for him.
So my son and I went to visit, on Tues night. She said she had one other person that called before me and that she wanted them to see the pup also. So I called Wed morning to see if the other person was interested. She then told me he was still available. So we went back over yesterday morning. We talked for a while and my heart melted for that poor little guy and I was going to take him. Then I said are we still in agreement on the price and if things don't work out that I can return him to you? She said, well someone called this morning and said they would pay me the full 400.00, and did not ask if they could return him if things didn't work out.
Needless to say, she would not sell me the pup, unless I was willing to pay more for him then we originally agreed apon.
Oh yeah, her interest is definately for the well being of that pup. By the way the reason I didn't see the sore on his neck the first night, was because he had a little sweater on, she told me she just had both of her pups clipped and he was cold. Also wouldn't the sore have been in the front of his neck, and not on the side of his neck, from a bark collar? I thought they work from the vibration of the vocal chords?
In the end, I can only hope that the pup goes to a really loving home.
Also, as far as the sore on the side of his neck goes, the humane society probably would have just given her a warning. I have delt with them in the past, with a neighbors bitting dog and the dog is still with my neighbors.
