Not neutered, not vaccinated, not chipped.

But yes, it's had it's health check hmm

It is 11 weeks old. Of course it isn't neutered. I doubt it is that unusual not to be vaccinated either and chipping is usually done by the owner. Anyway, isn't the health check something that's done when the puppies are very small?

I want to go and rescue the poor little pup but I am already in a love/hate relationship with a spaniel.

Why hasn't he specified what sort of spaniel? He looks like my cocker.

I think I'm safe from going at all :)

But that poor puppy. £250 is cheap for a pedigree spaniel. SoupDogg was £500 7 years ago and that was the standard rate at all the breeders I looked at.

He's not pedigree he's not got his papers.

No reputable breeder would sell without vaccs and worming tablets etc

SoupDragon · 07/10/2015 09:19

That doesn't necessarily mean they aren't pedigree from a breeding point of view, just that the owner couldn't be arsed to pay the fee. Either way, it's all somewhat dodgy - I don't think there is any doubt this one is 100% a backyard breeder in it for the money!

Well, I've also got an A in GCSE Russian as long as you don't need to see a certificate Wink

YABU to be 'freaked out' and not just puzzled.

SoupDragon · 07/10/2015 15:56

Does that A stand for Arsy?

TheoriginalLEM · 07/10/2015 16:13

Gottaget - can you say fuck off in russian? i am always looking to increase my repertoire of naughty words!

YEs, i agree freaked out is a little too strong, not really puzzled either though.

More - look at this twat!
