I'm definitely thinking $400 may be too much though. I've been looking around at most rehomes, and most people just ask for a $100 fee to ensure they're going to a good home. I just don't know. I can get a purebred puppy from a reputable breeder for $600. That's definitely kind of holding me back.
Should I send her an email and tell her I'm only willing to pay, like, $300 for example? And if she replies back with "no" then just back off, and wait a few days to see if she emails me back willing to sell for lower price? I feel like if she really just wanted a good home, she wouldn't be asking $400-$500. I just feel kind of guilty giving her $400 for her personal self, when shelters all around here have dogs for much less and the money is going to a charity/good cause. I'm feeling bad about giving this much money to just a person.... I don't know! |
