Beware of puppy scams

[Catherine]

Quote:It was just on our news a few people got caught.

I am glad they caught them. Sadly this was just one of many scams. People need to think before they send off money for anything.
You are right LPC, people should keep their money and approach a shelter or rescue group and adopt a dog that needs a home.
If they want to make a large donation so they can tell people their dog cost them a lot, I am sure the shelter can use the money.
They would get to see their dog and know that they have given a home to an animal in need.

There are even rescue groups for some breeds so it might be possible to adopt a purebred instead of giving money to scammers.
