Tonya,

I hope this works out for you.

Wow, $300 for a mixed breed. Was that his first offer? Or did you dicker a bit? I bet you could have gotten the price down from that. Not that it matters, I suppose, now.

Ask him if he'll throw in the chi, or one of the others, too - for that price. At least you'd get another one out of there before the ax drops. You can always take it to a no-kill shelter, and save its life.

I understand you wanting to buy this dog before calling AC. I do know that this was probably the only chance for this dog. I've bought and paid for some dogs that never even saw my house, but went straight to the humane society. Sometimes it IS the only way ... and life and experience teaches us that.



P.S. To Kfamr: I know what you are trying to say, and I know you are thinking of the dogs. I am sure you have good intentions at heart. But as soon as I start reading a thread, and see the first argumentative post made by you, I know it's going to go on and on and on for pages. I would suggest that you state your opinion, and perhaps one rebuttal, and then let it go. Having to have the last word always gets a bit tiresome for all of us that have to read it all, time and again. No offense intended, honestly ... just a friendly bit of advice.
