Might ruffle some feathers

it was as much the buyer as the seller it sounds like, maybe i missed something but i didnt see where the dogs were guaranteed to be any more than pretty, i know from my yard for 500 all you would get is a started dog with no guarantee of anything other than "that the dog is healthy"

If you are breeding and 80% dont turn out stop what your doing and start over, i expect and most times get 80% that turn out good dogs with the other 20% at least being help dogs

"its the thought that counts" that keeps coming to mind here

many questions should have been asked and there are lots of details left out here i think
#1 how old are they
#2 how long has he had them
#3 what has he done with them (all these questions would be asked to the new owner) before you can tell if the dogs are "worthless"
