Re: Puppy mills in SoCal?

Victory, I actually know of a few stores that sell puppies but the Craigslist business is BOOMING. I can't stand to go on there because I can't save them all. I wish I could! So many beautiful animals. Especially pitts being bred Over and over. For a breed with such a bad rep, there are thousands an...

Re: Puppy mills in SoCal?

Thank you all for your replies. As it turns out, I contacted them the evening before she was supposed to go to the shelter, as I said I would, and they said that they decided to send her back to where her parents are :(. I'm afraid she was probably sent back to become a breeder momma :( I wish I had...

Re: Puppy mills in SoCal?

She told me that the pup may be perfect but more than likely, she will have behavior problems and separation anxiety and would not be a good fit for someone with children.

Re: Puppy mills in SoCal?

Thank you for your reply, no personal info has been requested or given. They really want this pup out of their house, asking me to meet them at a petco about 40 miles away. Rorys dad, my exact worries were due to the fact that from what I've read, socialization is such an important factor for these ...

Re: Puppy mills in SoCal?

I never labeled chows as dangerous. I'd be JUST as worrried about any other breed if I didn't know them well. Being taken away from its parents too early can make a HUGE difference in the temperament of ANY canine, but I personally do not know enough about this particular breed to make a confident d...

Re: Puppy mills in SoCal?

I should add, I have a 7 year old golden retreiver. He is neutered and super friendly, but I don't want to put him at risk by bringing in a puppy that might be aggressive in the near future. Thanks everyone.

Puppy mills in SoCal?

Hello, I am writing to ask for advice and info, if anyone out there has it! My husband and I have been looking for a chow pup for about 6 months. We did, finally, come across a litter posted on Craigslist (my friend found the ad and sent it to me, I never go on Craigslist for animals) and so i decid...
