why_me 0 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Hello folks, some of u may remember me as puppy_power kicked off here without warning before depsite a decent reputation for breeding quality pups... Time-Wasters.... Why do they bother?? about 4 weeks back i had an ad on here (under puppy_power) lots of interest, people saying they wanted address to send cash/postal order deposit to, so i gave it no problem, even stated that pups were not at the address as did not want to attract dog thieves, no surprises that deposits never arrived... but few nights later when looking at the cctv pictures, strange folk lurking around.... then my ad went in the countrymans, went ok sold a few, deposits paid with paypal, couple left, then i was quite surprised on the issue of the next edition to get a call as i knew i had not put the ad in again, checked thru to be sure, nope not in, anyhow, fella seems real interested, wants a red dog saved for him, no probs, says he is coming up from kent, even knock £20 off price for him for his petrol, so £100 for his well bred dog pup, he seems well happy, must have spent 10 mins on phone plus 20 odd texts for directions and some other info, so theres me waiting at lunchtime on saturday, not really bothered as got plenty i can do such as walk round the fields with my air-rifle and still see if he had arrived or not..... did'nt show up.... i mean why bother in 1st place, 10 mins of call is about £1, 20 odd texts £2, might be free if in a phone package, but still the time doing it, what would you do? waste time and money messing people around or use the time to make/earn money? i know my choice, they could even have text to say changed mind, not a bother on me, i dont mind hanging on to the pups as its a pleasure to train them especially when u know they are bred to make good dogs, its not as though i have not got the space or can't afford it.............. Or are they just trying to find out where you live so they can nick the pups/dogs?? >rant over< have a good day..... p.s got a few rabbits round here showing mixy again, have not seen any in past 12 months, think i'll get the air-rifle out and see if i can get rid of them.

why_me 0 Posted October 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 3rd litter i've bred in my life and i'm labled a puppy peddlar lol, i've spoken to 2 of my friends, 1 who breeds chocolate labs and 1 who breeds springers and they both say they have the same problems which is why like myself they have stopped breeding dogs, so does not just apply to lurcher breeders.

hywel micah 18 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) I saw the add in the country mans weekly and I’ve been looking around for this surton cross for a while ¾ greyhound ¼ bull so decided to go and see them from mid west coast of Wales to Coventry and fair play to him the pups looked in good condition and you could see they were well bred and he even knocked of £20 for diesel. I’ve had the pup now for two weeks and I’m really pleased with him. So thanks puppy power and good luck with the rest. Edited October 29, 2009 by hywel micah Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 30,217 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Its just life pal....why do some folk phone car for sale ads with no intentions of viewing the car.....i used to wait in plenty of times for someone coming to view a car only for them not to show.....some folk just want info without being honest and saying so,they think if they dont commit to telling you they want a pup/car/whatever it may be you wont talk to them about it.....i used to be happy to talk dogs with anyone they didnt have to commit to buying a pup......then again i guess its all part of the game if you sell stuff your going to get time wasters you got to weigh up if its worth it,if its not dont sell pups.
