It's not inside knowledge.
Because getting a dog for me was a huge undertaking I took my time.
I joined so called forums for particular types of dogs. I found myself being messaged by kindly people who had just the dog I wanted !! Joy!! They even exhibited at Crufts so they said- so they must be trustworthy (?)!
Then I looked as their Facebook pages quite a lot deeper-hmm - lets just say they are into horse and buggy racing..
Then I looked quite a lot at gumtree and pets for homes
Lots of them seemed to have poorly bred dogs
Or claimed to be rescuing Romanian muts pay £400 to help a poor Romanian dog)
The longer I looked the more I realised its a total,pit of snakes Admittedly, I could have easily made that mistake myself. I guess I was just lucky.
None of those are things that I would do if rescuing a dog and I've had 8 from around the country as well as over a dozen cats.0 -
I never said I rescued a dog. I couldn't get a suitable dog from a rescue at all.missbiggles1 wrote: »None of those are things that I would do if rescuing a dog and I've had 8 from around the country as well as over a dozen cats.0
