Hi everyone..l just need to let off steam.
It's a given puppy farms are vile, totally unacceptable.
But l find all breeders are suffering because of it..l have a beautiful litter of 4 pups,the one and only litter of my 4 year old cockerpoo...and l cannot find homes for them no matter how much effort l put into my advertising on pets4homes...l am quite distressed..they are so adorable, cute and lively..but no one is interested....can anyone please suggest a good place to find these little bundles of black curls there forever home..

Sadly I think so many people are so scared of Puppy farms they wont buy off the internet - we were looking for nearly 18 months before a friend of a friend word of mouth recommendation

Oh how I wish I had known. We had been looking for so long for a puppy as well. From over seas, willing to do all research and go above and beyond for a good breeder. We were very lucky to have found one and paid for housing until he was 3 months and allowed to fly and are beyond blessed. Will probably have this trouble again in a years time when looking for another pup.

Oh bless i feel your pain.... yiunare exactly who I would buy off!!! We purchased our gorgeous girl from a 'large' well known breeder, she recently died at the age of 9 from sudden heart failure and her sibling also died of the same a year earlier at 8!!! I'm sure this IS a result or over breeding and waiting on a conclusive report from the veterinary hospital.
For you I would maybe suggest yiur unique selling point is that your are a homely breeder, much loved family pet, come andnvisit meet mum in her natural environment FULL checks required x puppy farms and large continuous breeders have caused harm but you are perfect and those that truly care where they are getting their pups from will find yiu xxx

Hi Lynne, I'm having similar problems - have homes for 4 out of 9 so far, but these are through word of mouth. I'm advertising wherever I can, but the only responses so far have been from people wanting me to keep them until just before Christmas, so I'm having to say no!

Hi, how did you get on selling your pups?
I've kept 2 of mine.
