When you set out to buy a puppy there will be many out there to choose from and reading this page may prevent you buying something you will regret.

Most good breeders will NOT deliver a puppy, dealers and puppy farmers WILL ,as they dont want you to know where they live or how to get to them when they rip you off.

Most good breeders will have a landline telephone number, puppy farmers and dealers  will tell you their landline number is out of order or some other rubbish so you only get them on a mobile and cant trace them when things go wrong.

Most good breeders will want to know all about you and the home you are offering their puppy, Dealers and puppy farmers WON'T , all they care about is getting your money..!!

ALL good breeders can let you see the Mother and/or Father of the puppies., dealers CAN'T, as dont have them, they have bought the puppies in from Irish puppy farms or the parents are so terrible they dare not show you them. Or they are really crossbreds.

NEVER NEVER NEVER, meet anyone in a service station to buy a puppy, or in a lay-by or services. Never send money to anyone who you have not spoken to on a landline number and verified their address.

Scammers in African countries will advertise on the "commercial" puppy sales sites and pretend they are in the U.K.  you will never see your money OR a puppy.  They advertise a cheap puppy and say you get all sorts of  "extras" like cages, beds etc, to sucker you in for a cheap deal,  its a con.

Speak to your chosen breeder many times. check out that they live where say they live, most will have a website with their dogs and winning parents and ancestors and WANT you to be able to find and get to know them.  The dealer and puppy farmer wants to lie low, get your money , give you a rubbish sick puppy and then vanish where you cant find them.

Many ,many little bitches live terribles lives making puppies every season all their little lives PLEASE DONT ADD TO THEIR MISERY BY BUYING FROM THOSE PEOPLE.  IF THEY CANT SELL THEM THEY STOP BREEDING THEM..!!!!!!!!!

CHEAP PUPPIES, are seldom that, once you have paid vets bills for the sickly pup you have bought cheap, you would have been better, cheaper and happier buying from a good breeder and paying a little more in the begining, " buy cheap, pay dear" is a true saying espcially in dogs.  Why would a breeeder take less than others if the dog was worth any more.  They want a quick cheap sale, and will NEVER take them back if you have problems.  They have your money..!!!!!

Here are some pictures of the conditions that your " Cheap " puppy will have been reared in, by purchasing from that dealer you as just as responsible for this cruelty as those who breed them.

I hope you find these picture as disturbing as I did.  These little bitches were all breeding puppies for sale even in their terrible state. Their cruel breeders were making money from them.  Thankfully  all the bitches in the pictures were rescued.  Their owner told cruelty officers.  " If the public didnt buy the pups I wouldnt breed them.
