I had someone try to "buy" one of my puppies using their hearing impaired disability "to send me extra money (by check) for holding one of the pups, then I was to send the "extra" money back to them via Western Union...etc., etc.,"
I'm now at the point, everyone I talked to isn't good enough/on the up and up to have one of my pups. Scares me to death, I had a trucker want one as a traveling companion and deep down I think he was on the up and up, but I essentially ran from that potential sale, especially after he said, "I'll take 'em both". I laid awake half the night knowing we were meeting today, with visions of my little guy being bought and stuck in a cage in some puppy mill as a stud dog as the trucker drove him back to the mid west to his puppy mill (hubby says I'm too dramatic/he's probably right, but after the deaf scam I'm suddenly not so trusting anymore/self doubting
)
I'll never sell them at the rate I'm weeding the 'buyers' out! Wish there were more YT members in Washington who love Yorkies.
I think it's terrible people try to scam other people, I think it's particularly vulgar to use a puppy to do so.
*sigh* Such is life, the perfect owner will show eventually.
