    Thank you for all your information. We just lost our little girl Evee Grace. She was amazing, full of love and happiness. She will be for ever missed. I would love to get another but I just don’t know if where to look. I want a reputable breeder. Good health. Thank you for all your information. Love your dog by the way. ❤️🐾🐾❤️

    Wow, so glad I saw this video! I almost fell for the same thing. I only knew it was fake for sure, when they would only text me with really bad grammar, and refused to let me come out to see any puppies! Thanks so much for the info! I hope to find another Boston baby soon! I just lost my 16 year old, named Dottie Lou. Now I know how to look! Thanks again!

      Yes they do. I felt soooooo sorry for a lady who came from Austin to buy one of my puppies in Dallas Texas she had gotten scammed on Craigslist but I told her I would never ask for money up front but if she was traveling to my home I would hold for her. I even had a man fly in from Florida for a pup

    Great info for Anything bought online, including BT dogs! Thanks for posting.
    I bought my dog online back in the mid 2000s, and was So nervous. I paid a big holding deposit to a stranger and had to wait a few weeks for the puppy to get old enough. She notified me with an appointment to come to her home, then when I arrived at the address, which was about a 2 hour drive, no one answered the door, and there was no cell service. My husband was super mad thinking we had been scammed. I could hear dogs barking though, so walked around the property until I found a back door and knocked. Finally a teenager answered the door and said something like oh my mom probably forgot, and she's not home. She brought the litter in to the den from another area, and we played with them for a while. She said we could have our pick of any of them, but in the end kept our original choice, we completed the official papers with the teenager, and left with our dog. There was no follow up by the breeder, so that was strange. Our dog lived until he was around 12 1/2, and was a pretty great dog over all. He had a few significant, but typical for purebred BT dog health issues like a luxating patella that he had to have surgery for at 2 years old, and lifelong skin allergies needing daily steroid pills. He got cateracts as he got older, so was blind the last couple years, and was also pretty deaf and incontinent the last few months (probably because he didn't know where he was). We still miss him terribly though.

    @nanidogmomstevens6386 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    THANK you, Donny. What makes me ticked is that some of the reputable show breeders say THEY will pick out the best puppy for you. Many won’t let you meet the puppy until you pick up. What’s up with that? I want not only a healthy dog, but one that is interested in playing with us. I don’t want to impulse buy. ☦️👩🏻‍🦳🐾🇺🇸ohio

    I had a feeling Puppy Galaxy was a scam, I found the same things as Donnie described in the video. I didn't know how to verify that the company wasn't legit, so I called the AKC for advise and to see if they were registered with them since they were saying they had "registered" puppies. The AKC advised me to ask for the litter number, breeders name, phone, and address. When I did this, I did not receive any further interactions with Puppy Galaxy! The next Company I went to fell into the same category, so I did not pursue any online breeders again. I found a local one where I could go and actually meet the breeder, the puppies and the parents! I am so happy I am bringing home my new baby Zoey this Friday!! :)

    Our BT puppy came from one of those dog selling pages. I filtered bread and area. Came up with some few hrs away. Lady had been on the page for some time before the puppies where up for sale. Prices was in that nice spot you speak of, but we called her and left a message. She called back next day and was able to go PU the puppy few days later. Super nice older lady that was happy to show off the other puppies and momma. (Daddy was few houses down)
    It was suppose to be for my wife. A cuddle buddy at night. Nope, she cuddles up with me most of the time. Momma is jealous.
    Love this cute little gas ball.

    It’s very difficult to find a well bred Boston. You usually have to get on a waiting list. If there’s a “breeder” that has a lot of puppies immediately available be suspicious.

    I had a black and white boston that looks like the puppy you have up. I wanted a red female and went to buy one and the females were gone, so I bought the last male and decided when they were ready they could breed and maybe I could get a red female! Female was AKC and male was only one parent AKC but the parents and pups looked adorable. In about 9 mos. to a year, the parents decided to breed. They had 4 pups all beautiful and great marks, all males no red bostons. The C-Section cost me $2K., shots and deworming $400. Dewclaw and docking $400. I listed the pups on craigslist for $800 and they were gone very quickly. I required people to come to my home and wanted to make sure they were placed with good families. You can see there is no financial benefit vet bill was $2800 and food another $300, and I did not even get a red female ! Still I think the breastfeeding is beneficial for the female prior to her being fixed which she is now !

All the BT’s we’ve owned we’ve gone to their houses, held the puppies, looked them over to find the right one for our family. I know it’s not an easy thing for everyone to do but it’s the best way (for both puppy & owners) to know you’re getting the right choice. Good luck! 👍 👍

      @@tom-ss2mn The AKC Marketplace is NOT a trustworthy place to find a puppy. The AKC Market place does absolutely NOTHING to ensure the quality or legitimacy of the people selling dogs there. They just provide the platform to list the dogs for sale. I bought a Boston from a backyard breeder in Texas, she sold us a dog that had hookworms and died within 6 days of bringing her home. We had to sue her in Justice of the Peace Court to hold her accountable. Don't assume that because it has the AKC name on it that they do any type of quality control or inspections. Learn from my mistake and listen to what Donnie is saying here. Do your own homework.

I live in North Alabama and I can not find anyone that sells them around here. I guess this is Pittbull area 😥. I seen the same names of these pups and pictures of the one you just showed along with the 50% off deal. You can not get them on the phone either it's always leave a message.
      If anyone knows of where I can get one at a decent price please let me know. I would drive as far as Nashville..Huntsville or Chattanooga to get one I dont need papers on one I dont plan to use it for show I just need another one to love and it love me back. I know that i will never find another like my first but would be very happy with a new one
