Yes some of what you said does sound very fishy and personally wouldn't want to get involved either. But you said he looks like he was well groomed and cared for. Maybe she felt she didn't need to ask any more from what you had told her. Maybe she just cares if he goes to a good home and doesn't care to do a backround check and go the extra steps of following up or staying in touch. Some people just don't care. Not everyone is so caught up with their dogs like some of us. Things that may not be normal to us are normal to other people. You said it was a shady neighborhood, maybe thats just the kind of people they are. I just don't see how he would be vetted and look like hes been cared for good if he wasn't loved or if she didn't care at all for him.
Mainly I was arguging that the rehoming fee was not bad and worth it. |
Yes, he was well groomed, and seemed friendly and cared for, I really don't think he was abused or anything, or lived a life in a kennel or anything like that. I don't think she, herself, is a broker or anything. I know not everyone cares for their dogs like we do. I just don't want to give my money to a person like her I've decided.
She told me she just got him groomed, so she probably got him looking nice to sell him, obviously. She had his puppy picture listed in the penny savers ad, he looks totally different from that now. Puppy pictures capture more peoples attention, obviously.
Like I said, I already did it once with Jackson and still feel bad about that. The woman I got Jackson from was a nice lady in a bad neighborhood (Baltimore City) as well, and yeah she kissed the puppies goodbye and "cared" about the puppies, but she was BYB breeding, and not bettering the breed, or health testing, etc. I just don't wanna make the same mistake twice and contribute to things I don't believe in.
