Hi we were looking for a spaniel breeder and found one not too far from us, price agreed with deposit agreed, breeder had chat on phone with us to find out about us & all was good. Arranged with breeder to visit puppy tomorrow at her house by phone however she said to us she would give us her address but up to now she hasn’t. So AIBU to think that she isn’t going to give us the chance to view the puppy considering we have deposit to pay her? Or are we missing something here that maybe she’s just been busy?

Husband was retired yesterday, now the poor bastard works again. 😅

They're not able to cope on just OP's three salaries, they need the income from him too!

Given that OP is still reading and ignoring all the posts which query her multiple different stories, I'm smelling something faecal here.

Animal welfare groups may as well be banging their heads against a brick wall. Surely anyone with half a brain would research buying a puppy to ensure they weren't using a puppy farm?

If this isn't a wind up, then the only other possibility is the distinct lack of even half a brain.

@Safarigiraffe were you honest with the breeder regarding the hours that you and your husband work?

He also trains spaniels in his spare time. What a busy man!

Sounds normal to me, with the amount of dog/puppy theft going on why would you hand out the address until absolutely nessesary.

Maybe he has trained the spaniels to operate the time machine levers, so that he & OP get brought back safely from their busy multi-simultaneous-job schedules.

Or perhaps OP went to Hogwarts, & kept an illicit timeturner.
DO come back & tell us how you manage it all, @Safarigiraffe!

No, he trains up spaniels as part of his job, which he can easily do from home.

I mean, I suppose he will be able to do that from home if they get a dog!

I'm really glad this is a load of nonsense

Possibly OP is a performance artist or psychology researcher ;)
