Description

We attempted to purchas a puppy. He wanted 600.00 down and 600.00 cash at pick up. We used venmo to do the first payment. Then he wanted apple gift cards for the remaining balance. I questioned why because we already agreed on cash at pick up. He wouldnt answer questions or give updates on the puppy. He gave a phone number that doesnt work, an address that is a Home that belongs to the Gusler family andbis for sale on Zillow and he is using videos from a Boxer breeder in Missouri that arent his. Now he is not answering our emails or messages. We put in a dispute on Venmo and we also told him we want our money back and dont want to continue with the sale of the pup. We DID NOT sign any agreements or documents.
