I think you are absolutely spot on with your sense of right and wrong. It is wrong to take advantage of another persons ignorance, or emotion, or circumstance. But when purchasing a puppy there are many opportunities to walk away, too often those opportunities are wasted.
If a person wants a smaller Yorkie and is willing to pay a higher price...it's improper to cry foul. Two consenting parties came to an agreement and money changed hands. I personally think the lottery is praying on the people who don't own a calculator...but it's their money.
I equate this to the person who is shopping for a $200 Yorkie and feeling ripped off when it doesn't turn out to be like the more expensive ones. Should anyone be surprised?
The
educated buyer is the person who gets what they paid for.
We should be wary of the person standing in a prison they themselves constructed and crying VICTIM.
