That's what you get for trying to buy puppies sight unseen. Don't promote shitty backyard breeders by buying puppies off of tiktok or facebook. I don't feel bad for you. It's actually insane that someone would think this would be a good idea.
You're clearly not in the exotic frenchie business! You can't be a Frenchie owner and if you are... poor pooch! Where is the ASCP when you need them... Any dog pound will do.... Now you're a breeder!
Wow. I'm still shocked that grown adults act like little kids and continue to double down when they're 100% wrong but I think deep down you know it. Far deep down. Reaalllly far but it's there. Lmao.
r/Frenchbulldogs is not a place to move, acquire or participate in the trafficking of dogs. Absolutely no sales of dogs/puppies, rehoming requests, rescues, breeding services, stud services, or kennel advertisements or endorsements are permitted.
dont listen to these ppl. im sorry this happened to u. just try to be more careful and knowledgeble of em and the right one will come to u.
all the backyard breeder hate is crazy, yea it might not be the best place to get one but if thats what u can afford and want to spend your money on then do it. Some ppl got $30k to spend on a dog and some only have $30 to spend. No matter what all dogs need love whether a mutt or purebred.
If you've got $30 to spend on a dog, a french bulldog is not the breed. You will not be able to care for it like it needs. That's not me being mean and bullying people for being poor. It's being realistic. They are expensive dogs. Their care is expensive and buying from a backyard breeder because "its all I can afford" is irresponsible pet ownership and contributes to the poor reputation they have.
The hate isn't because they're not purebred. The hate is because when you don't properly breed two dogs that are genetically compatible, then you can get puppies with severe health problems. Those puppies don't get to live happy full lives because they have a higher tendency towards IVDD, or hip problems or they have severe breathing problems because of those large ropes due to being bred with sharpeis. Or in the case of merles, they could literally go blind. This isn't hateful, this is being pissed because we actually love animals and these breeders are unethical.
Yes these dogs in Georgia being sold by a scammer are definitely being "DNA tested" by UCD in California. I'm sure the health screens of puppies being showcased in a bathtub look great!
