Dagger Is Back Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 After losing our Golden Retriever Skye, in October, we think we’re ready to welcome another dog into our lives We got Skye in 2008 from a breeder in Peebles who was known to the family So much has changed since then. We’ve identified a litter via the Kennel Club, and they have two Labrador pups left out of 7. I’ve had photos sent through of Mum and her pups, a couple of the pups and Dad but the pups are only a week old The breeder isn’t an accredited breeder on KC but the pups have been registered I can’t find anything about the breeder on line, he’s a farmer in Girvan ie no website We paid £600 12 years ago but the deposit this time around is £500 I’m not for coughing up £500 without seeing them with the Mum and checking out the breeders. I would have expected a reputable breeder to feel likewise about us as potential owners.The family though are putting the pressure on and I’m already Mr Bad Dad for not having coughed up 20% of the guys asking price!!!! Any words of advice, experiences to share JKB? I’m looking for helpful posts so please don’t bother posting if you don’t have something constructive to contribute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambo_74 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Obviously its up to you, but I had a lovely dog who unfortunately passed away last year that was s a rescue. She was the most wonderful boxer and personally I think they are the best breed in the world. That's not the point though, have a look online and see if there are any lab rescue societies and go from there, just my humble opinion. Save some money and help out an animal in need of some love.

Nicholas Brody Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I'm moving into a new place, hopefully at the end of the year and have my heart set on a Golden Retriever. Some of the prices I've seen recently have been outrageous though. £3000 or thereabouts. Sorta hoping it's just a lockdown influx with supply and demand.

CavySlaveJambo Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 The Kennel Club and DEFRA Have recommend using FaceTime/Skype/messenger to see the mum and pups together while the pandemic is ongoing however many reputable breeders will have waiting lists either while waiting to confirm pregnancy or while the pups are still young. But at the moment part of the reason the price is so high is supply and demand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooperstar Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Demand for dogs has shot up during lockdown and with that so have prices. As an example we got a cockapoo in February and paid £1200. General asking price for them is now £3/3.5k. Higher deposits also being sought. I have seen a few stories of people being done over through paying deposits for non-existent dogs. The sellers have been using fake names and addresses though, or at least names and addresses that are not their own, so if you are sure that the farmer is real and that is who you are speaking to then that should be less of a concern. You might want to check if they are registered as a breeder through their local council, which is different from being registered with the KC.

Very often the staff at a rescue centre will know the dogs history at least in part, such as if it's come from a family with kids or just an old person, whether it's been abused, what it's temperament is like, if it's nervous if it's aggressive or if it's suitable for a family with kids.

My son works at an animal rescue centre and he said the number of enquiries that they had about dogs the minute lock-down was announced was ridiculous, it was clear people weren't thinking about afterwards, when they went back to work and the dog was left on it's own. As it turned out, they only had 3 dogs at the centre when lock-down was announced and two of them were already in the process of being re-homed, so they were allowed to continue and the dogs were re-homed, the other dog is still at the centre as they refused to even consider re-homing him during lock-down, which is what they told people, come back after lock-down and we'll see, besides the centre is shut to the public anyway, but that doesn't stop people phoning enquiring about dogs, every day or so.

I don't have a lifestyle suitable for a dog, but do spend too much time on the Dogs Trust website. All the dogs have very specific descriptions of suitable homes e.g. Nor suitable for homes with young kids, not suitable for city centre homes/not suitable for homes with other animals. That said my old neighbours got a dog who had been taken there as she was supposedly bad with children. They learned over time she was great with kids but terrified of people with walking sticks.

Lone Striker Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Hope the wee fella heals your pain, Dagger - although we always retain a permanent place in our hearts for each dog we've lost. It's not surprising that rescue centres stopped re-homing during lockdown - quite a sensible precaution to protect the dog's future welfare actually. Just like they don't re-home in December either, to stop the dafties using them as Xmas presents. As a point of principle though, I would urge anyone who is looking to add a doggie to their household to consider the rescue charities first. The reputable rescue charities have behavioural experts work with the dogs to assess and improve their suitability for re-homing (as much as possible). And please also consider an "oldie" - they tend to get overlooked, but they'll give just as much love/loyalty/fun (and mischief) as any other dog ...... just for a little bit shorter time. You'll benefit from knowing you made a difference to a creature in need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was the female who was telling you about my Gin tasting project! Anyway, like you my friends dog died last year and she was ready to look for a puppy so I’d shown her this thread and she took on board the advice re scammers. I visited her today and I was showing her the photo of the puppy you have bought and I commented on how alike her new puppy and yours is. She said she recognised your couch from her WhatsApp group! Turns out you both bought a male puppy from the same litter from the farmer in Ayr so they are bro’s lol like your puppy hers is delightful, chewing everything in sight. He also bolts down his food in seconds. He’s bringing lots of pleasure to my friend and her hubby after the loss of her dog. Small world eh!
