Indeed, it also highlights the importance of keeping intouch with people puppies have gone too and taking a dog back if needs be or even buying a puppy back.

I know how your friend feels as I got let down by someone who had promised me a dog too. She was a reserve show champion that the other breeders in Kerries had nagged the owner to rehome as the poor bitch was kennelled most of the time as the owner worked away from home travelling during the day. People at a nearby factory had complained that the dog was barking a lot.

I cried all weekend when he rang to say he had changed his mind (at 6am on the morning we were going to meet her).
However, 2 weeks later we had the phone call about Cherry and Parker who needed a new home urgently and the rest is history!

I hope your friend gets a suitable dog soon too.

Bev, are your friends def wanting a NID? There are a few older ones out there looking for their forever homes xxx
