Anyway......this is the what Claire told me about Peppy's brother.....

The little guy was returned to the breeder because the new owner could not take care of him. Being way too generous, the breeder refunded all of the money. While she was showing the puppy to new prosepctive parents, her phone rang. The breeder walked into the next room was only gone a few minutes and when she returned...... the CROOKS and the PUPPY were gone gone gone. The breeder believes that it was a set up. What a heart break. But now we all have a warning......

NEVER, EVER LEAVE THE ROOM WHEN SHOWING PUPPIES! I guess this is a no-brainer for most folks, but where we live, people tend to be reputable and honest. It is always good to learn from other's mistakes.

unbelieveable!!! thx for posting this. i often leave the room but i won't any more.
