Hi
Yep i agree, its almost certainly a scam. If the seller of these puppies cared that much to ask so meny personal questions, then they wouldn't take what someone says in emails. I believe there were similar scams with snakes being sold in the same way. Unless a breeder allows you to visit their home and view all the puppies, and one or both the parent dogs, then steer clear. We have Border terrier stud dogs and we have close contact with the owners of the bitches who are covered. All prospective owners are invited to view the puppies. Never would a puppy be sent to an unknown person. Check out the Kennel club website, they have lists are registered breeders. Also, be wary of Pugs being sold too cheaply as there are many genetic problems related to the breed.

if it was real, then I'm certain they could find someone in Belfast (where they claim to be) to take them.
100% Dodgy. ....and check the email header for ip addresses and i bet they don't trace back to Ireland

i have seen this EXACT advert!! i called the guy and he seemed VERY suspicious...all he wnated was the cost of the courier and NOT the cost of the animal....VERY strange!! is the guy based in Ireland? He told me he was in ireland and he needed the pups to go ASAP due to work and to pay him then he would sort the courier out.
Hope you manage to read this before you part with any money!! paul.

stay away!
Run away!
Stay away from ads like this. They seem like a good honest bargain, from someone who treats their pups as their 'babies', but when buying a pup you should see at least one of the parents. If they are pedigree ask for the certificate and maybe history of blood lines/parentage. Stay away from 'cheap' pug puppies. If they are pedigree they are around the £800 mark. If you buy from these kind of adverts you could be supporting the puppy farm trade. If in doubt about what these are check out 'you tube', but beware, the videos will upset you. Check out 'Epupz' for puppies for sale. Please stay away from the kind of ads that promise 'cheap pedigree puppies'. That is not what you will get. Good luck finding a lovely Pug pup! Sam

When I was looking for a King Charles Spaniel a couple of months ago, many adverts seemed genuine but as soon as you get an email reply, you can tell a scammer straight away.. this one is typical. Plus, who calls their dogs Lisa and Matt LMAO.
