My boss recently decided that they couldn't handle taking care of their Shar Pei anymore (with 4 little kids and all). A friend of his told him this lady really wanted a dog, so he went and saw her. She must've looked ok because he gave the dog to her with no charge even though she insisted she'd pay. A few days later, my boss' friend happened to look on a local university classifeds forum and saw an ad from the lady... and she was selling the dog for $450!
Of course she denied it at first and then stopped taking his calls... and eventually my boss had to buy the dog back from her because he didn't want the dog going to a place he didn't know. I guess you can't trust anyone! People could just beg for free dogs and sell them to make a quick buck. |
