So as I mentioned before, I want another dog for Rocky to play with. I've decided on getting a female this time, hoping I don't have to worry about a dominance issue with another male. Plus, with smaller dogs I've noticed he loves the females, but doesn't care for the males. So I saw in the advertiser yesterday about maltese-mixes for sale for $350-500. I called the lady, wondering if she is a breeder or if this is a one time thing, because I want a maltese in the future (or a mix), but can't get one right now. She said she is licensed to sell puppies out of her home, and she doesn't breed gets her dogs through breeders...Kinda sounds like a petstore to me, but she sells them out of her home. She told me that she does have purebreeds available, and they are around $500-700, which is really good! So I guess this lady is like a third party pretty much. What do you guys think of buying from her? I would definitly see if she questions me for the puppy, and ask her questions about the pups. I do think she might keep them in her home, because when I called I heard barking in the background. What do you guys think about this ordeal here?
