That's not my intention but a friend of mine stopped by last night picking up some dogs and made metion to me that 2 Cat. dogs he just bought from a local registered cat. breeder were garbage.  He now is stuck with 2 dogs because his wife bought them as a christmas gift to him and would raise hell if he got rid of the dogs she paid 500.00 a piece for because they were PRETTY.  Now one thing that really gets under my skin is when someone is breeding dogs just from what they look like with no proven hunting line in them.  I just don't understand why someone would breed and sell as HUNTING dogs when all you are getting is a sh*t eater that looks good.  What I am getting at is we have enough mutts running in the woods making hogs smater as it is and we got these people just adding more to it.  BTW this is not the first person that I've heard about being shafted by this breeder.  Am I the only one this bothers?

 I agree with you cause I got shafted a couple of months back. Someone asked about some dude in victoria on another thread and I let him know all about the dude, cause he was the one who burned me. I let him know cause I don't want anyone to get screwed over like I did.

sounds to me like the wife had good intentions but probably should have enlisted the help of some of his hunting friends. If this guy is a reputable breeder he might replace them. Bottom line is this happens every day, unfortunately

There are two people that caused this situation/problem.

The buyer and the seller.

As long as there is a market for "pretty dogs", I imagine the seller will continue to breed them.

with any dog you have to be careful and make sure and buy from a breeder that is also a hunter, but even then its a dice roll, sucks the guy got stuck with 2 big feed bills like that, reminds me to tell my wife NOT to buy me any dogs for xmas, lol

In the end, I feed my dogs, not my wife.  Whether her feelings got hurt or not, they would be going back.  Maybe next year she just gives me CASH. Grin

Yes sir... I don't understand everyone getting screwed on dog deals?

This may ruffle some feathers... but it's real easy not be screwed. Wink

I think way to many rush into to something that's sounds good or looks good.

I agree his wife should have asked a couple of his friends it just really gets me with peoples way of thinking these days.  I gave him 2 started dogs just to keep him hunting plus time to thin the dogs, deer season is about to start up and the hogs will be getting a rest for a couple months. Grin

i think most of us have been screwed at least once, when we were new.

there are more pet breeders out there than hunters breeding good pups.

people are breeding for money instead of breeding to keep some dogs around. selling pups for $200 and up is crazy. you never know what you are going to get.

Who's worse? The guy selling the puppy for $200 or $500 or the person who has bought the dog and knows it is not worth nothing but still turns around and sells it for a "hog dog"?

My wife would never buy a dog in the first place much less for $500. She gripes when I bring home dogs. Cause she has to feed them for the 2 weeks I am gone. Just she if the man will take them back, if not just cut the losses.

Buying puppies even out of proven lines is always a roll of the dice.  We've all seen litters of well bred dogs throw both gems and lumps of coal. 

Of course there are puppy mills, show dog breeders, and hunting breeders.....all have different agendas and goals (on top of making money)....

Bottom line is that it is a gamble with a puppy and all a person can do is do his/her homework when purchasing a puppy and hope for the best.......sure, things like "guarantees" are great, but those are few and far between with pups.

I have no idea about the details behind this transaction but looking at the factors of puppies that you didn't get to research and pick.......the odds were stacked against you from the beginning.

It would be nice if it was a hunting breeder and he/she would honor a RETURN........

 If you see a dog for sale on a forum ,a quick search of the seller will show you the deal. There are a few that list dog after dog. You know what that means.
  You can get mad at all the sellers you want. The BUYER is the one handing over the money........
