Thinking of getting a FB

Terrapin · May 31, 2017

I've owned breeds ranging from poodles to Boxers. My gf wants a frenchie, no other dogs in the house currently, and I came across a FB breeder in Minnesota. All their pups are $380. Just seems incredibly inexpensive. They encourage air shipping and delivery for an additional $200 and delivery within 12 hours.

I can't find any negative reviews of the place but wanted others opinions.

Thanks in advance.

It has to be a scam or the ad left off a 0 on the price.

I'm sure it's a scam. There are people pretending to be local breeders that, when you inquire about a puppy, say that the last was already sold but wait! There might be a couple of puppies you can "adopt" from a preacher in Africa. You just pay for the cost of the puppy and shipping, but never see a puppy.

This is definitely a scam.

You cannot get a healthy Frenchie for $380. It would be best to find a local breeder that you can visit so you can see their dogs and how they live. Puppy mills usually won't let you come to visit.

You could also end up losing more than just a deposit if they find out your bank information, address etc and combine that with any social media they can find on you and then get a credit card or bank account in your name.

Scam for sure, even the low life puppy mills sell them for more than that. Find a good reputable breeder that will let you visit their home and see their dogs. You can also go to the FBDCA web site and they have breeders listed there also. Plus find a dog show close to you and go. Talk to the show breeders there, they can help also.
