    OMG! Never ever before!

    Hello I have the most adorable baby mini Pomeranian to barter. I truly believe this is the most ethical option at this point because I have 2 kids that are too little for a small designer dog. I'm afraid it would get hurt in my home.

    This dog was bought as a well intentioned (surprise)gift. However, this is a dog that needs a lap and a loving owner with the time to pamper her. I work long hours and feel that it is unfair to have a dog but not the time to spend with it.

    I wanted to give it away but realized that it might not get to the right place(lab, unloving family, etc) if there isn't an equal exchange so I am offering to trade 15 years of total love and adoration from this georgous pup for something that can better my world.

    I really need a car! Doesn't need to be fancy but a runner-can throw in some extra towards.
    I have two girls under 8 so I'm open to suggestions for them. Music,art lessons, etc...
    I'm interested in motorbikes, dirtbikes, mopeds etc for myself or daughters to grow into- power wheels etc., sports equipment.
    I like clothing, electronics, gift cards, typical girl things, antiques,etc.

    This type of puppy sells for $1200 online and around.
    I just want a very good home and a fair trade for it and that can be many different things.
    I'm open-minded and fair and really interested in finding a stable loving family for this puppy.
    It is excellent with kids.
    It is very playful and intelligent.
    On it's way to being completely housebroken and doing very well at it.

    She has no papers. I know that "devalues" her but you can tell just by looking that she is pure bred. She is the sweetest little puppy. Full of love. Perfect for a family or a senior household. A home with time to enjoy her.
    She has all of her shots up to date and worming, and my vet confirmed that she is full bred Pomeranian. She is expected to be about 6 pounds. She is tiny! We call her Penny but she is young enough to be renamed.
    She looks like a little fox with the cutest face you'll ever see on a pup. She is the cutest puppy I've ever seen. With that said, I have to think about what's best for the life of a dog and my house isn't suitable at this time for a little doggy.
    She will come to you with everything she needs- carrier, brush, food, toys...
    We are having fun with this pup and my kids are very upset that she has to go to another home. I have pictures to email and will answer all questions.

    Please don't give me a hard time about this- I feel bad enough as it is to have to place it in another home and the responsibilty that comes with that. We love animals in this home and have always adopted shelter dogs as pets. This is the first dog I've ever owned that is full breed and not adopted.

    Please don't be shy with your ideas. I am open to placing this dog before it gets too attached(myself included)

    Thank you for taking the time to read and have a nice day!

    Can't that be reported?  That's just sick!

    I wonder if the dog was stolen and they just want to make some money? This might be true especially since they don't have any papers for the dog.

    No, the "most ethical option" for you is to call Pomeranian rescue and surrender the dog to someone who cares and will find him an appropriate home, not to seek out the home of the highest bidder.  Your dog is a living, breathing creature, not a furry block of gold.  If you do not want the dog, your ethical obligation is to find the pup a loving home, not to line your pockets.

    Wow...that is quite the stomach-turner there. People are just sick sometimes.

    So if they have the right car or motorbike they will make a good dog owner??
     
    You are totally a someone who is out to get something for nothing.  I bet someone gave you this dog, you don't want it, so you figure you can get some gain for it.
     
    Give it to a resue if you really care about the dog.

    • Gold Top Dog
    Oh my gosh, Coco.  I totally misread and thought it was your dog you were talking about.  Sorry for misjudging you!   
     
    Now I can post what I wanted to but didn't:  Who the ^(&*( are these people are where the %*&*^ do they come from?!  [:@]
    • Gold Top Dog

    I'm confused....is the dog a puppy or is it 15 years old?
     
    Still, a sick sick person indeed.

    How can owning an animal not make your life better and happier with the companionship and love they give?
    Obviously this is someone more concerned with possessions then things that matter to us animal lovers!
    Hmm wonder if she would give up her kids too if the right offer came along...how sick is that thought!

    I was just on Craig's List....apparently others felt it was as inappropriate as we did, as it was "flagged down".

    Some people are so clueless. And to think she's raising kids.
