I questioned someone today about the prices,and the reason given was because if someone paid £2000 the dogs would have a good home, so money talks ?  in other words if you can't pay that price you are going to abuse/ill treat or sell on, what an insult to real dog lovers
Only got to look at KP and be proved wrong

I had that said to me years++ ago - I pointed out that it doesn't matter the cost, pup/kittens end up in rescue when owners can't cope.  Of course, every breeder should have a returns policy!!

It breaks my heart clkd,there was a picture in the newspaper with the man cuddling this tiny pup,I doubt it was even old enough to be away from it's mum,poor little thing,after all the news stories about being careful where you buy pups from,why do people still buy them this way,anyone with half a brain wouldn't meet someone in a car park to pick up a puppy  :'( :'(

I know someone who did. In the 1990s she wanted to breed what was popular via Crufts ..... so met a man in a lay-by and bought a pup unseen.  It was quite a nasty terrier but she bred from it.  She then went onto the next 'popular' breed ......... where were the  UK Kennel Club in all that?

So sad this morning,watched footage of cctv of a woman dumping her old retriever near woods,the dog thought it was just going for a walk,wagging it's tail,she led it into the wood a bit,then ran back to her car and drove off  :'( people never fail to disgust me.Least they got the dog and I think they have got her as the footage clearly shows her number plate

These springers were probably destined for a quick sale puppy market, for those who don't want to pay breeders' prices.  I hate to think what conditions they have come from  >:( and quite honestly, the Vet should put them to sleep.  Unless they find the owner in Hungary there isn't a hope in hell of a prosecution.  So much for UK Border Control  >:(

Apparently the BBC are planning on releasing a programme which follows young dog breeders as they build up their business.  Hummmm .........  as if we don't have enough dogs in rescue  :-\
