We have been trying to get our daughter a little dog for inside. I saw an ad on gumtree for the cutest little toy poodles in Sydney. This is the rezponse i got from one ad:

Thanks for your mail response in regard of my puppies and i'm very

To begin I will start asking you some questions But I am very sorry is
because I am looking for a lovely person who can take very good care
of my puppies...PS. PLEASE GET BACK TO ME WITH MY EMAIL ADDRESS ON (
[email protected] )
-Are you a breeder?
-Do you have kids?
If Not then do you have some one that will always play with Him/her?
Have you ever raised (Owned) a puppy before?
Do you Own Other Pets?
How is your Working Schedule?
Are you getting him/her for your Self or for Someone Else?
Do you own a house if so Do you have something like a playground
(Back Yard) where you can take these puppies to play on?
If not then is there somewhere like an A Park near Your Home Where
You can take Him/her On Short Walks? Do you have Any Pictures you can
send to me so I can see she will be going to a loving home?
Do you want to breed Him/her?
How soon do you want Him/her or both?
-Are you sure that you are going to take care of any of my babies?
-Gift me a Brief Description about your Environ -Do you have a vet doctor?
-Were exactly are you located?
-Can I have your phone number to reach you?

As you have already seen in the ad, I
Am giving out them for sale since they were owned and taken care
of by my late wife whom I lost to a drunk driver couple of weeks ago.
As a result also My name is Mr.Felix Cameroon, I'm 39 years old and
I'm a police by profession i have relocated in Perth and my address is
13 Levine Ct, Thornlie WA 6108 due the mobile nature of my job and
right now I can't take proper care of the puppies which was a sole
responsibility of my late wife. They really do remind me of her sad
memories all the time I look at them and hurt deeply. So, my greatest
desire is to find someone who can properly take care of the puppies
and if you can, I can arrange for delivery if you cannot come right up
here for the pick. Delivery is sure will be moderate since we spent
just too little bringing the puppies up here. I’m given each of them
$250 including shipping If this is OK by you; let me how soon you will
need these puppies at you home? So let me know what sex you will love
to have as a family companion’s that I can send you the pictures. Do
let me know if all is fine...PS. PLEASE GET BACK TO ME WITH MY EMAIL
ADDRESS ON (

Thanks for understanding_
Best Regards
Mr.Felix Cameroon

oh yeah, for sure mate, ill hand over money to someone in perth when the ad said they were in sydney, noit to mention the general dodginess of the ad.
 
As a result my name is Felix Cameroon.
I am a police.
 
LOL I like this line; So let me know what sex you will love to have as a family companion’s :lol:
 
lol. as if i would trust a copper anymore than your average jo blog.... and if your wife just died (i replied to this add a week ago) as if you would be thinking about posting stuff for sale....
 
We recently had a similar issue. We wanted a pair of huskies and saw some online. They were meant to be in South Melbourne, but when I said I will only pay cash on pick up, they said they moved to Darwin and need to pay $500 for delivery. What a Joke!
I'm now only dealing with recommended breeders!
 
Funny enough a few months ago I was in a similar position, looking for a puppy and an ad (also from WA, Perth I think) said something similar, much, much shorter but said exactly the same about the new born puppies being already toilet trained - A few DAYS old pups!!!

As if! Our last dog was almost 12 months old when he became toilet trained!

This people think we're all idiots?

- Another one, he asked to be paid via PayPal, but then wanted the transport, (some $250-$300) to be sent via Western Union, as his transport company would not take bookings until this fee was paid upfront!

We're talking about a 14 hour journey for a puppy, also from Perth.

I nearly got done years ago when we first started thinking about a small dog for Tilly. In hindsight it was to good to be true, untik she started saying she thought sydney america....

LOL. There are just so many things said in there that are wrong.... But as fay said some poor people are actually gullible enough to fall for this crud, part of me thinks sucko to them if they are that silly, but then i think of the grandmas that are scammed out of their pension and it makes me sick....
 
lol at compactly built...how handy
 
now if only someone on here had maltese/****zu or chihuahua pups that they dont want to scam me with, i would be a happy mummy....

From her grave she also forced me into becoming a police officer, sucking at English, and moving too Perth.
 
On a side note be very careful where you buy puppies from make sure you get one from a registered breeder as there are heaps of puppy farms in australia selling dogs with no real thought to genetic defects and living conditions .
And make sure you can see both parents as some times they use a residential address as a front and make all sorts of excuses as to where the parents of your puppy are.
I hope i can do this but i suggest a website called "dogsonline" they have done most of the hard work for you by venting who can advertise on there but still be care full .
And remember when buying a pedigree dog cheaper is not necessarily better , there is no point spending less money on the initial price when the vet bills on an inferior animal will make up the difference in the first year.
Or even better adopt a dog from a rescue organization which has already been vet checked and temperament checked .
my 5 cents.
 
i would adopt, but as i want this to be my daughters (nearly 3 yr old) pup, im hesitant, as they mostly have older dogs and i want a pup for her so that i dont end up with a dog set in its ways, that has bad habits that are already formed... i think dogsonline is a horrible site to read as i cant seem to figure out how to get only my state!

lol, missed that bit.
 
Any doubts at all simply say
How wonderful, my brother is also in the WA/NSW etc Police and will visit you to check the puppies and pay for them
Please send your phone number so he can call you
TY so much
 
rescue organisations all the way =]

one in four animals surrenders is a pedigree anyway...

give a dog a second chance rather then support breeding when thousands of healthy dogs are being euthanized from a lack of homes =[

they do have heaps of puppies as well. People surrender whole litters of puppies...
 
as i said im more than willing to look at rescue pups but atm they all seem to be large breeds, or strange crosses. and im sorry if this offends, but i want something that i can stand to look at when its an adult, not just something thats cute when its little, and grows into an ugly thing.

i bought a "bull terrier x" from a rescue group years ago, and she was deadset the strangest looking dog ive ever had... if there was any bully in her id learn how to kiss my own butt, lol...

either way as i see it i will be giving a dog a good home that it can grow old in.
 
ive got 2 gorgeous rescue dogs. A pure bred sheltie and a kelpie cross, both attractive extremely well mannered dogs.

there are other small rescue groups out there if your just looking at the RSPCA? You can also give your name at a lot of them and they will contact you when a puppy of your specifications is surrendered =]
