Q: So Mad
asked by: tinkinpink84 on June 26th, 2007

SO the guy thought i didnt want the puppy from him anymore, so he sold it , now he only has yellow labs left and if he thinks i am gonna buy a puppy from him he is crazy, i am lookin at the other site now that can take 2-3 weeks but thats ok. but that just makes me mad , i am soooooo writing the paper to tell them his poor business. ugh.
Well i called the Puppy one from the website, they have a female black lab right now its a mix between black and chocolate. it would take 6-7 weeks for teh chocolate labrador and i really want it before jason leaves. So the guy said for extra 120 euro he could deliver it tomorow, wich is fine because its only 400 euro for the puppy to begin with. SO hes calling me back later, oh and the good thing it has a passport too! I emailed the paper telling them about this guy that gave me the run around so hopefully his name is taken out of the paper. But hmm can i get jason to let me name it tinkerbell lmao

Could just call him/her 'tink' for tinker or tinkerbell, I cant see a guy calling a dog tinkerbell lol

If you like the choc black mix puppy and dont have to wait long to get it, I would go for that one. How old is it? they shouldnt sell puppies before 8 weeks old. Are you going to visit the puppy first so you know what its personality is like before you buy it? My pup is on my lap sleeping right now Smile

the guy is maybe trying to come by tonight, black or chocolate is what i wanted. not fond of the yellow. hes calling me back around 5-6pm. cuz he might be able to deliver it at 10pm tonight.
They have a special feeding guideline, for the first 3 days feed it a hard boiled egg. then occasionally cottage cheese cuz it helps with there fur, and once a week cook it chicken and rice. And the dry food mix with cooked or bottled warm water. They will brng a 20lb sbag of puppy food for it as well. it has the passport, shots, chip , papers. and this one is 100 euro cheaper then that other guy.

well mostly the puppy choice is jasons, he wanted black or chocolate, this one is black but not black black. And oh so cute. I cant wait.
The paper the guy advertised in emailed me back to get more information because they want to follow up with that guy. So i told them the entire story since that guy had the impression i went with someone else, but what i told him is that imay go and find one elsewhere since he couldnt tell me anything exact. then didnt hear for 3 days and emailed him when he then told me he sold them.
Maybe i will let jason name her, he cant call it jason jr hehe Smile so he can pick the name.
Originally when we were looking we were looking at black labs. Jason just wants a puppy and not an older dog.
So i am excited because this other guy is really nice and was talking crud about that other guy lol. Plus this guy is 2 and a half hrs away right now. I just gotta ask them the age when you would spay them if we choose to , not sure if jason wants to spay her or not hemay want to try and breed her later on who knows. so that choice is left up to jason.
But ah im soooo excited now. Smile I cant wait for my lil princess to come here.

Geez, that first guy sounds like quite a di(k. I personally think his ad was a scam. But this other pup sounds great, since it comes with all that stuff. Seems that these people actually care about their puppies. I can't wait for pics!! And if you name her tinkerbell, does .jason have much choice as to what to call her? Especially if she gets used to that name Wink

yeah that other ad i dunno, the guy just had his number and email that was it well and saying puppies for sale. this other one has a website and stuff and the guy is really nice. But thats why i emailed the paper it was in so they can check it out, i told them the whole story. so hopefully they keep me updated. waiting on this guy to call me back here in the next hr to see if he can come tonight or tomorow afternoon.

I got screwed over with our older dog. My hubby told me to find a puppy I liked and that would be my valentine's day gift(since I wanted one so bad) so that night I finally found one I liked, and it wasn't *too* far away, and it was within the price range we set. So I called the people, and talked to my mom (my road trip buddy) and got it set up so that we could pick the puppy up within the following couple of days. Within this time I contacted them about 23847945 times, and they assured me the parents were small, and the puppy comes with a pedigree. They told me the mom was 5lbs and the dad was 6lbs. And it was hard to see the size in the picture (I wanted the female, but they only had a male left) but I was clueless about chihuahua puppies, I'd only had them as rescued adults. So when we got it I thought he was little. He was 8 weeks old when we got him, and when I went to the vet he asked "So what is he mixed with?" my heart completely sank. And I basically argued with him and told him he's a purebred because he has papers. And now I really believe they fudged the pedigree and beat us out of $350. I had my heart set on a tiny little dog. But as it turns out he's an awesome dog, very obedient, and smart. So I don't at all regret getting him, but I do regret not doing more research. He's not the size of a St. bernard or anything....but he's not a tiny lil chi either. He looks like chihuahua, but I think he weighs nearly 10lbs now. He was 8.5lbs a year and a half ago...but I think he gained a bit since then.
I just hope you don't get screwed! But if you saw a picture already, then I'm sure you could tell.
Looking back at my dogs pic, I can tell he's nothing like .daisy and he didn't look like the dog I was supposed to get.

yeah, that would make me mad. Going through all that to find out in the end it wasnt purebread id be oh soo ticked off. These people really love the puppies, they have a feeding plan for the first few days and so on. And you can contact them with any concerns you have with your puppy or any questions at all and they can help you out. He freaked when i said i had puppy food lol. They give me a 20lbs bag of puppy food for it, and i can eventually mix the 2 then eventually she will be able to eat that puppy food i bought by itself, they dont want it getting sick or something. Just funny that they say feed it cottage cheese once in a while cuz it helps with there fur and feeding it a hard boiled egg the first 3 days. I am happy though, its like having another baby a furry one i didnt give birth to hehe.

I've never heard of giving them cottage cheese....I thought dogs were lactose intolerant. I think I've heard of the hard boiled egg one tho.
It does sound like the people really do care for their pups. We met these people halfway, we paid them like $50 for gas....then when we got out the lady said "Oh, he's been eating cheetos because we forgot water" and that is a direct quote. I could NOT believe it. it was a 2 hour drive for them. Then we had a 2 hour drive with him back home. So when I offered him water, he drank quite a bit. He was also never outiside before we got him...they were "paper training" him. Well he also had fleas, so if he was never outside, then their house or other dogs must have had an infestation. I did end up having questions about him, and when I called they never answered and they never responded to any of my e-mails. So the last time I talked to them was the day we picked him up. It still angers me off.

aw I want to see too Smile I love dogs. This is the first one Ive ever had because my parents had their hands full with 4 kids, they never let us have a dog (I begged and begged) lol
Shes 4 and a half months old now.
I had a problem with her previous owner, it was so annoying! She had lost the vaccination form from the breeders vet which said exactly which ones she already had. And my vet wouldnt give her the final vaccination without proof she already had the first one. I phoned that woman up so many times and when she finally answered her phone she told me she couldnt find it. So we had to start the vaccination process all over again, and I had to wait 5 weeks to take her out for a walk! She was so hyper back then, she needed a good run around in the park to tire her out, but instead we were stuck indoors playing fetch instead! Shes calmed down a lot since then already, I thought it would take longer -the walks must be helping Smile

hopefulmjz do you let yours on the sofas and beds?
