A person selling a live pet off of Facebook

AI Highlights
  • - Puppy listed on Facebook for $600; seller claims it has papers.
  • - Buyer doubts it's purebred; price seems low vs $2500-$3000 and AKC info missing.

Hi there, there is a person selling a german shepherd puppy on Facebook, and I was sending messages through messenger asking questions about the puppy, how much it is, does it have AKC papers, etc. he says the puppy is purebred, and has the papers.

and the price he is selling it for is $600.00. NOW, for a purebred German Shepherd puppy you are looking at $2500 - $3000.00, plus there was NO information on the AKC paper. and he seems very pushy!!! I don't believe it is a purebred German Shepherd Puppy to be selling it at THAT price.

his name is: John Molly, and is he registered with AKC??? there are many red flags that are popping up.

if you can contact me at: susan.maybroda@***.ab.ca or

(780) 232-****. I look forward hearing from you

First of all, most breeders suck. There are too...

AI Highlights
  • - Most breeders are for profit and many animals end up in shelters.
  • - Rescue cats listed are not current; they want Dirty Little Paws removed.

First of all, most breeders suck. There are too many dogs and cats without homes, on the streets, and dying in shelters every day to purposefully keep bringing more into this world FOR PROFIT.

That being said, breeders who carefully raise animals only to preserve and improve bloodlines are the exception. 99/100 fall into the first category. This animal sales site is awful. Somehow, some of our rescue cats are listed.

We did not do this. On top of this insult, the cats are not even current. Your listing posts cats adopted over a year ago. We do not want this association.

Please remove Dirty Little Paws and All adoptable cats from your pages. We are not affiliated, nor do we want to be associated at all.

Thank you. Kat Parker Purresident Dirty Little Paws
