Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 I need some advice, Iv been to look at a few litters of puppies lately and the last one i went to really raised alarm bells. It was a complete shithole to be honest, The owners would'nt let me in the house and after seeing the flea bites on their legs and fleas pinging off them I would have declined anyway. But what got me was the shear number of dogs they had in there, all full of fleas with runny eyes and covered in shit. All had nails like witches so i suspect they dont leave the house. I know pups make a mess iv had them, iv seen it and cleaned it. but this was something else. I felt sorry for everyone and dogs involved, and against my better judgement i bought a pup (I know, I know!) I just felt sorry for it, well all of them, I offered to take the whole litter off her hands but she said no Now i feel like paying money for a pup was a stupid thing to do because while they are selling they might keep breeding. What i will say is the husband had been really, really ill and they wanted rid of most of the dogs. I think maybe when he was well it was not the cleanest place but now he's not its really gone down hill. Thay can't cope. I feel like i should tell someone but who? Defo not the rspca, maybe the local authority? What do you reckon? I feel like a grass but a couple of peoples feelings is less important than one dogs welfare let alone 20 dogs, Right? If you're not a grass then don't grass. Tell the people who have this Flea infested litter that you'll get in touch with the RSPCA if they don't let you buy the litter off them, just make them think you will. I personally wouldn't go grassin'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well done. You're right...there's no point in starting a witch hunt....they're probably just out of their depth and need help. Hope it all works out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
