A broker? Wow that is a big accusation to make!
I understand that this lady may not seem that "great" but who is to say it's WRONG to ask 400$.
AND Britt. What IF she did use that money towards her children? She spent money on the dog which would be taking away from her children so who cares how she spent her money? I don't know I feel it a little offensive to accuse her of being a bad person because she is asking a rehoming fee of 400$.
Honestly how many times do we read about breeders or other people not wanting to lower their asking fee and so many people say " if you can't afford the initial cost you can't afford to care for the dog ".
I just think it's wrong for people who are complaining about the cost. It really isn't that much and like you said, she was giving you his stuff an crate. That stuff is not free! When things didn't work out with my yorkie-poo and I rehomed her for 500$ and the lady wanted me to go lower, I said no. I paid 450$ for her, plus all her stuff and vet check up. She wasn't even spayed yet and she was 10 months old when I rehomed her. That lady bought her from me and had an appt to have her spayed so that probably cost her another 250$ around here. I spent that money on bills and groceries. That doesn't make me a bad person? I just feel if you didn't like the rehoming fee why bother the woman? I know you seem like a great owner and a wonderful girl but really to judge someone on how much they are asking for their dog and how they will spend it is really not your business.
I don't see anything wrong with asking to lower an asking price but you said she already went down on the asking price. Alot of people find it annoying. I know I did when I was rehoming my dog and one of the first things they ask is if you can take less.
