I want a cheaper puppy for myself... How do black breeders work? Tell me, when you come to the market, you also ask the sellers: “Do you have cheaper apples, maybe even beaten and slightly rotten ones? Or maybe you have wild carrion? Well, even if it’s sour, for my own sake, I still don’t understand the varieties of apples!” Sounds absurd, right? Well, why then do people ask for a dog “for themselves and cheaper”? Indeed, in most cases, buying such a dog can end up costing several times more than an animal from a trusted kennel! With a “cheaper” puppy you can easily bring home a bunch of problems - from multi-colored parasites to bites and a destroyed apartment. But let's take things in order. As a rule, the buyer’s logic here is the simplest; they choose animals “for themselves” only according to the amount in the ad, and the lower it is, the more profitable the purchase seems. But the stingy one pays twice. The first and most harmless thing that can happen after purchasing a dog without any documents or pedigree is that you will simply get a mixed breed or a purebred mongrel. Exactly the same as those running around in the nearest trash heap, only for money. It is very easy to attribute traits of a particular breed to a small puppy. Fluffy, which means he’s definitely a Spitz, the red spots above his eyes are definitely a shepherd, and his short legs are 100% corgi. But a cute bear cub can easily grow into anything, because there are no documents confirming its origin, but you can promise anything. The would-be sellers, who deliberately push the yard instead of the breed, are counting on people to endure and fall in love. Like, people will become so attached to the puppy that they won’t take him anywhere, even if he grows up to be a mixed breed. What if you were choosing a friend for a one-room apartment or for someone with allergies, when the size and type of coat were the key factors? The second thing you can bring home with a puppy “for yourself and cheaper” are parasites and various diseases. In words, sellers can assure you that the treatments have been carried out, but until the puppy has a veterinary passport with all the marks and seals, such words are worthless. And an untreated animal can easily turn out to be a Trojan horse carrier, because some of the not-so-pleasant nasty things from the dog-cat arsenal are transmitted to humans. Ringworm, for example, will very quickly jump to you, your entire family and other pets. And this infection takes a very long time to be cured. It's the same with fleas, which love to bite your legs and multiply exponentially. There are also internal parasites - worms, some of which are also often transmitted from animals to humans. The third feature of cheaper animals is various diseases, from viral infections to severe intrauterine disorders. Often this is not visible in the first days after purchase, and when everything becomes clear that the baby came to you already sick, it will be us
