He does look terribly sad, but maybe he is just scared. If he is a year old, it looks as though they had shaved him completely a couple of months ago for his head hair to be short. If my Zowie were up on a shelf like that and was scared, her ears might be down, too. The breeder is doing herself an injustice to send pictures like this. Maybe she sent a child or someone out to get some quick pictures. See the paint can, this is a relatively small dog in comparison. I think she should go see the dog, if he is really a happy and loving dog, It is probably a good deal. If he is not social - watch out. I do think my dogs were silver and tan by one year, he looks a little younger. Sure does make you want to hold him and make him feel better. He does actually look very well groomed and healthy if you look closely at him. |
