I did tell him that my friend had backed out and I didn't think that two puppies at the same time was a good idea. He didn't seem too upset, more upset about what the other woman had done to him. Clearly, he is not a breeder, it's an accidental early litter, and he's trying to do his best to place them in loving homes. I am still getting the one that I had originally promised to purchase. My guess though, once he calls animal control in his county to see what the laws are about getting the puppy from the 600 dollar lady, is that he will hand over adoption to them. And I'll have to go there and get the dog. If that happens, there are small dog wait lists for the local pounds and I won't get the dog, anyway!
Goddess what a lot of drama over a dog I don't even own yet!

Unless he had a contract stating that the puppy cannot be resold, there is nothing he can do if they resell it. Also this is not animal controls responsiobility to get a puppy back for him.
If he has a contract, he can take them to court, but without a contract, the buyer did nothing illegal.
He should have investigfated his buyer a little more thuroughly, and had a contract spelling out that they can not be resold.
