No, it's called greed.

No respective breeder farms their bitch like that. The amount of people I know who have just gone off to some random and passed over several grand without doing any background checks on th dogs or the breeder is shocking atm.

Exactly but with the price of puppies, especially designer ones, going through the roof, every man and his dog seems to be cashing in on this trend. Easy money for some of these Jeremy Kyle estate people.

And that is why dog snatching is massively on the increase as bitches are stolen for breeding.

I have even seen people sell their family dog just to cash in. :(

That's horrible.

We've had about four reports locally, some have been in villages! There is a 'site' up the road mind.
 
My mrs and I are looking for a puppy and to be honest it's a complete nightmare to find anyone reputable that actually responds, I think demand is so high. Might have to get a cat instead *sigh*.

I inherited a (rescue) cat from my mum just over a year ago. Cats can be very aloof and quite bitey at times. But now she's come to know us she has become incredibly loving. I genuinely didn't know cats could show this much affection before we had one.

But they will abandon you if the neighbour feeds them better food :D

Yeah gypsy site was raided last month and 80 dogs were found, a lot of them were stolen dogs and have slowly been reunited with their owners. Two springers stolen from a local couple back in November were two of the dogs recovered.

Custom cable added and had to return the Logitech G Pro X headphones as they were way too tight especially with my glasses. Steelseries Arctis 7 wireless has replaced them.

I've gone even smaller... the Razer Huntsman mini in white with red optical switches. These are really nice, quieter than my silent browns! Just need my glorious model o wireless to come now.

Re: rescue pooches.
I'd love to give a home to as many rescue-floofs as possible - sadly, with our family dynamic (1 Autistic son, a daughter allergic to some breeds, myself in a wheelchair) we've had to be very selective about our first family pooch - she needed to be a) hypoallergenic, b) young enough to start assistance training and c) big enough that I can't roll over her and traumatise the kids. Which ruled out a lot of rescue pups.

You do know that f2 breeds etc aren't guaranteed hypoallergenic? Just so you're aware.

Mine is an australian labradoodle which I believe is more likely to be hypoallergenic (as they're multi generational rather than 2 cross breeds bred again), but most breeders still don't guaruntee it.

Looks like a good puppy though, hope you and kids enjoy!

To be fair I only plan on keeping one. I decided to try the Razer on a whim but actually I've been using it today and I've found a number of times the arrow keys are really useful. I am likely going to return or drop it onto MM.

In other news.. this big boy got delivered today.

Alienware AW3821DW.

My poor 3070, need to get a 3080 now..

We were aware - hence carefully exposing Sophie (hair AND saliva) and waiting 30 minutes to see if she has a reaction (with other breeds she breaks out immediately), then we talked about moving forward.

Wife's due diligence when it comes to breeders is second to none - managed to avoid selling a kitten to a vile backyard breeder last year, because something about her tripped the radar (insisting upon driving a cash deposit down to us, from Shrewsbury) - when we pressed upon another trusted breeder to act as escrow, we learned she had given her married daughter's information instead of her own. We returned the deposit and found a loving home with a pair of doctors who'd bought from us previously.

Sounds like you know more than me about it! Only reason I raise it as I've seen on a few labradoodle groups "I thought they were hypoallergenic..." which is easier to learn before you get them!

Enjoy your sleepless nights and wfh distraction if they're anything like mine :D
