'Rescued' cocker now being sold on.....
« on: June 21, 2013, 09:31:05 AM »
On Gumtree at the moment there is an ad for a lovely (orange roan by the looks of him) lad.  They are stating they rescued from a pound 'a few days ago' and now trying to sell him for £350.  :-\

Hmm. OK, they would have had to pay a donation of some sort at the pound and I suppose most importantly they saved him from the Jag but.....can't help feeling a bit of a bad taste :-(...... rescuing then selling on at a profit.

Could be a dealer - sadly there are people who go around "rescuing" from pounds and places where not many questions are asked and then sell the dogs on via free ad sites :(

Just hope he is passed on to a caring forever home.  It breaks my heart to read ads such as these in papers and on line.  :luv:

Truly awful! Some people have no scruples - or morals either, it would seem!  >:D
