How to Spot a DOG PEDDLER

[grittydog]

The dogs that people are asking 1000$$ or more for. These DOG PEDDLERS are very good at scrwewing people out of there money. I know of 1 that has been doing it for years and does it to people that should have  known better. You would think if somebody has screwed this many people that they would get dealt with, but they never do. These are things that I would do

1. If the dog is that good, you usually dont have to advertise on a classified add.
2. You have never heard of this person and nobody else has either.
3. Under their screen name they have under 10 posts and all in the dog trade
4. They will not show them hunt.
5. Metting them on the side of a road somewhere, if I buy a dog I'm going to there house to get it
6 Get on the board and ask if somebody has bought a dog from them before.

You left out pics of the dog. You will never get a pic of the dog on a pig
Or they tell you give the dog a couple weeks to warm up to you and if he ain't what you want we'll trade back but then they never answer the phone.

just to advise on this . when you buy a started dog it is and should be a MUST to take you a couple of weeks to socialize with a new dog . that is the advice i give on every dog [started ] that has left my yard . because for the most part outside of one other i am the only human that has had contact with the dog . dogs have a brain and do miss there old home and need time to settle in . when you start a new job do you go full boar from jump street or feel ya way around for a bit to see how ya new boss does things ?

I dont know if you can put an actual number on a price they ask. They will generally try and get whatever they can for a dog. If they cant move it for $1000 they take the most they can. Peddlers are like any other type of hussler. Time is of the essence and if you take your time and dont impulse buy they generally get fustrated with you and move on to easier prey. If you sit back and watch closely enough you'll also see them flip flop about what they claim to have. They generally talior what they say to what they see people claim they want. Its something I have seen them all have in common eventho when they read posts like this they try and act different for a while. Patience and research is the key and thats something most dog people don't do properly. Sorry to say it that way. Looking at 1 wesbite and going for the biggest names doesn't cut it. Generally the ones who advertise the most are the biggest shysters b/c they have the most to lose.
