I know of two flea markets in my area of Florida that sell pups! Actually a friend of mine just got taken in by one of the sellers there. I told her that I would help her IF and WHEN she decided to get a puppy. But they went to the flea market and fell in love!!! Paid $300 for a "designer dog." A mix of dauhsand and maltese. The little pup has had the runs with green slime and the seller dropped off some med in the mailbox for the dog. They went back to the flea market on Sunday and confronted her about taking the little pup to the vet. The Seller said that she would take the pup to he own vet.....but would not pay for my friend's vet. So my friend wanted to go with her to the vet..............make a long story short, the seller gave every excuse in the book not to have her tag along to the vet using no room to a great distance away. She is suppose to call my friend this morning to see what can be worked out. I explained to her about these dogs at flea markets in a kind way but she is in love! And the little girl is darling. So guess we will see how this plays out. But the business card my friend was given.....has about six different breeds on the card! Hmmm, tells me alot! So anyway...............the heart strings get tugged at these poor babies but I would never buy from a flea market. Just looking for problems when you do! I am about to call and see how the little one is doing. So that is my take on flea market puppy sellers!!!!
