Puppies to DIE for!!!

My boyfriends parents are thinking about getting a new dog (their current golden retreiver is over 12 now...). So anyways they found these cute little pups! They are a mix of Newfoundland and Golden Retriever. I don't know you can't buy one after looking at them.... I'm hoping they will get one of them!!

Aw they ARE cute!

But having big overgrown puppy still in the house, it's easy for me to say NO! LOL!

RE: Puppies to DIE for!!!

they are sweet i just don't know what comes over people when they decide to breed crosses then sell them out at a decent price. i would also be worried about bringing a new puppy into the house where there is an older dog and if the older dog could cope with a lively bouncey puppy. I do hope it all works out though Smile

$200 AND without any puppy shots? Sorry but that would definitely be something I would have to pass on. Thats insane!

That's $202 dollars to much. Go to the pound and get a golden rescue with altering and current shots and very possibly housebroken. These dogs are mutts and not to be sold for profit. With no shots given I question prenatal and puppie care. By this age the should have had a minimum of 2 puppy shots. The max price should be about $60 with shots. I have breed AKC for over 15 years and know the costs of breeding.

Currently it seems mix breeds are being sold at a much higher price than many registered dogs. He's cute, but then how many pups aren't? Any pup ready for a new home, should already have at least his first round of shots.

They are cute, but definatly pass. I bought a mix once had it's first set of shots when I picked him up, two weeks later I had to put him down because he had distemper. Sad, don't buy a pup unless it has had it shots on time and they can prove it. But like stells said there other dog might not like have a pup around.

OK I'll be the one to make the statement; "desiner dogs" it's the in thing now and anything that is in is high $$$.

If your boyfriends parents decide to get one of these pups, I wish them all the best. Puppy energy and exuberance will definiely keep you young, or tired Tongue They are sweet looking and they will more than likely be a very big dog. Since you are hoping they will get one of them, my fingers are crossed for you.

I went on Petfinder.com and found a mother dog and puppies for adoption in Orange county. They are crosses of lab and newfoundland with shots and altered. Pretty much the same dog but with vet care. The best place to look for a designer dog is thru your local shelter. Cross-bred dogs are great but don't fall into the designer dog trap.
