well seems a bit of a sham to drop them on you like that.Not that i breed mine but if i did and someone wanted a them i would supply pics and details.But if they were for free and you like them and decide not to take them back i would suggest getting futher details on them.Are they vacinated as they need the vacinating for various things like distemper?Are they neutered ?as the female can die if they are not mated when in season.
