9 breeds and selling at a flea market are big huge red flags. |
I live about 8 miles from the Pendergrass flea market... I wandered into the puppy area once and was heart sick. The puppies are beautiful... but so very tiny. Many of them seem to be in a glycemic (sp?) state. Some are displayed in windows with heat lamps, even when it's hot, like deli chickens. Almost all are "CKC", which is not a legitimate registration. The prices are substantial -- $500 to $1500 a pup; and while I was there, there was no shortage of buyers. Many designer breeds -- morkie-poo; yorkie-poo, and other creative names.
In the same area, they sell chickens, ducks, rabbits, etc., probably as food animals.
At first, I thought it would be a wonderful thing to give one of these babies a good home -- and it would -- but my veterinarian niece practically forbid me to consider one of them, saying the purchase of just one baby is supporting a life in Hell for at least two parent dogs.
