To think this kid has been photoshopped

Onto the photo to give the appearance that the dog is not on a puppy farm?
Other photo on the add shows the dog with puppies in a barn style setting with a heat lamp.

My ds has grown up with ddogs and would not get one by the tail..

Have you Googled the address? Breeder?
Are they stated as licensed? Check with the local council?

It doesn’t immediately jump out as being photoshopped, but I don’t have a particularly artistic eye. Can you post the other photos from the ad?

MrsWooster · 01/06/2020 15:52

It’s a bit forced-scruffy man (I know, I’m judgy), tight lead... the child’s not playing with the dog. Even if it’s not a photoshop job, there’s no sense of an easy relationship between a family pet and a baby.

KaTetof19 · 01/06/2020 15:55

I'm leaning towards photoshop because the line of the face against the bricks is too "crisp". If it has been done, the person knew what they are doing because that's the only clear tell from the resolution of your shot.

There might be more 'tells' on the original.

KaTetof19 · 01/06/2020 15:56

That being said, the child also looks like they're in different lighting to everything else.

Windyatthebeach · 01/06/2020 15:57

Dress shoes and joggers raised my eyebrow also!

reservoircats · 01/06/2020 15:57

The lighting looks WAY off

SimonJT · 01/06/2020 15:58

It looks like pets4homes

Please if you want a dog go to a rescue or use a good KC registered breeder, look at all health tests for the breed, view mum and only take on a registered puppy.

Don't know about photoshopping, but if other info has made you suspect puppy farm, this photo wouldn't do much to say otherwise. The dog doesn't look very healthy. And the man looks a state!

peopleherearerightcunts · 01/06/2020 16:00

Genuinely don't know but the way that man is dressed seems really odd.
His hands look filthy too.

BeenHereForAges · 01/06/2020 16:00

Looks dodgy.

TinySleepThief · 01/06/2020 16:01

Dress shoes and joggers raised my eyebrow also

That's the first thing I noticed too!

It certainly does look like the child was photoshopped in but I'm no expert. All in all its a very odd picture. Confused

ITonyah · 01/06/2020 16:02

It's not a nice looking labrador. Badly bred. Can't speak for the photoshopping but I do know my dogs!

PennyRoyal · 01/06/2020 16:02

Found that one online. Looks very dodgy and I would say almost certainly puppy farm, especially looking at other photos. And the price 😱 Steer clear.

serenada · 01/06/2020 16:04

Look at the child’s toes.

Windyatthebeach · 01/06/2020 16:04

Have you enquired about a dpuppy? Get someone else to do the same. Compare responses...
I reported a few ads that me and dh contacted and got different versions...
*browsing not serious buying off dubious sites!
It's a minefield op.

peopleherearerightcunts · 01/06/2020 16:06

Do you have a link to the ad?

Flymetothetoon · 01/06/2020 16:07

It's ok I'm not looking to buy a puppy but I love labs and fancied a bit of puppy googling - and yep this add is on pets4homes!
To me the image of the toddler is almost transparent and she looks ridiculously huge compared to the size of the dog and man!

The feet of the child don’t look like they’re sinking into the grass, it looks like her image has just been layered on top flat.

ScarletFever · 01/06/2020 16:07

i zoomed in but couldnt see anything obviously faked? dont know how big the attachment will be

Will try and find the add again.

ITonyah · 01/06/2020 16:08

It doesn't look photoshopped to me.

ScarletFever · 01/06/2020 16:08

although the hand placement looks like its got squares underneath where the tail is?

Soubriquet · 01/06/2020 16:09

Yeah she’s a puppy farm dog

Poor thing
