I also will not ship my puppies, too much can happen with them. If the person can not come and get them, or I can not take them to them, they do not go. No exceptions to that. |
Now that is an interesting way of looking at it... I know my point of not buying off line was sending them money then afraid I"d not get the puppy in the photo. Plus you can not tell a puppies personality from photos online.
I guess it at least helps you in knowing that those coming to you want a healthy puppy,and are not just looking for a cheap price.
