I don't think there is any 'perfect' solution, but there are checks and balances. As I said, there are stickies and people do make comments and criticisms about pups for sale.
As to my earlier post, I agree with Mary about some of the things going on here. Some folks are too eager to sell a pup and seem to troll threads for buyers. Hopefully the checks and balances help to make unsuspecting buyers aware. I just don't think that the problem is so pervasive that EVERYONE that posts in the nursery section or announces a litter in the breeder forum is doing so for ulterior motives. Some folks just like to share and I see nothing wrong with that. The gist of my post is yes, there's a problem, but I hesitate to associate everyone that posts about their babies with that problem.
Gail, thanks for the well-wishes. I truly hope it's an uneventful whelp. |
