I'm not that crazy that I would meet someone in a dark alley for a yorkie
I've never gone alone to pick up a dog yet. I have a husband and 2
OVERGROWN sons. My oldest is 22 yrs , 6' 5" 275 lbs wrestled and played football in HS and Junior College. My other son is 6' 2" 200 lbs and played football, wrestled and now trains in Ju jitzu. I have taken them with me in the past. Usually costs me a fortune in food on the way but well worth a little protection.
But seriously, I'm not crazy and know that there are a lot of very crazy people out there that could potentially cause me harm.
On another note, YTNR is wonderful and they have our Teagan! When I went and met that breeder it was in the parking lot of a McDonalds off the expressway. I took Ju Jitzi man with me for protection.

These kind of things can also be set-ups for a violent crime of you arriving and then instead of receiving what you came for...they mug you & take your $$$.
I realize you would only be going there to pick up this Momma as a rescue...but, you don't know what kind of people are out there and wouldn't think twice about taking your car, too!
Personally, my life is more valuable to my family than it is to YTNR whom I foster for and I would never think of putting myself into that kind of an "obvious" scam situation!  |
