There's something "fishy" about this ad! I wouldn't trust them for a second. Did you see the thread with the title "Would You Give A Dog To This Person?" yesterday? (It's in this same "Dog General" section.) This ad sounds like it would match the lady in that thread pretty well. There's more to the story here than they're letting on in the ad. Can you find out any more about it? I'd report them if there's any question about what they're doing. These kind of people make me so angry!

Seems a bit odd to me. If they are so worried what homes these pups go to, why even consider killing them? Why are they so worried about the pups being spayed/neutered, but they don't spay their own dog (not to say that would be a bad thing in the case of a reputable breeder -- just odd in this case)? This person made it sound like this has happened more than once. Hm..

Sounds very sus.

Maybe there is no "friend" and they are desperate to get rid of the unwanted puppies so they made up the "dad killing the puppies" story. That's what I would guess - because even if that were the case, why would you say that on the ad.. if only to get them bought faster for sympathy.

What a sick-o!!! I can't believe they would post such an ad!!
I've posted ads before for dogs needing homes, and they take at least a day and a half to be posted because people look them over and have to approve them before they get put on the web site!! Why on EARTH would PetFinder let that ad be posted?!?

how odd! he probably thinks he's doing these pups a favor.

Sounds fishy to me too. "A friend of a friend"? People use the "if you don't take it soon it's going to die" tactic all the time to get people to jump through hoops to take a dog and in this case it seems like they're trying to get money out of it too. I would report these people.
