Description
She posts about free puppies only to ask for $200 for paperwork. Then told me the courier company needs an extra $600 for safe transportation. Then they asked for $1200 for insurance. She paid $600 but we had to pay the rest. Then after they said the $1200 was the final amount of money they asked for $1500 to microchip the puppy. And the couriers and the breeder said she didn’t do the microchipping before transport, which is legally required by breeders.
