Well, you're the only one who would be able to know whether or not the pup will go unnoticed in your appartment. He could bark, he may not. Does the place have wall to wall carpet? What would happen if after you moved the landlord saw a stain that you couldn't get out? Those kinds of things are what I would think about there. What would I do? If I really thought no one would notice, I'd take him now.
As far as the bandwagon here and whether or not to even take him - well, I'm not gonna lie and say I wouldn't, especially if you're already attached to him. BUT - this is a BAD breeding situation for sure no matter how nice the lady is. I just hope you're not paying a lot of money for him. I'd 'rescue' a FREE dog from a situation like that, but I'd never in a billion years pay for one coming from that kind of a breeder. Like was said, if you're paying for him you better have a good health guarantee. To be perfectly frank, I honestly think that woman should be reported - 20 puppies! in cages! being fed garbage! it's just sounds really aweful to me. Alice came from a BYB that works with a relative of mine, but she was free and they only had one litter and the dogs had a huge area in the kitchen to be in and a fenced in yard to play in, were held and played with etc. I still wouldn't have paid for her though and that home was WAY better than the one you're describing Twix is coming from. Hopefully he's nice and healthy for you. Good luck. |
