Val (Zebedee) Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Found this advert on the net .... why would they offer to keep your dog for the first 6/7 yrs then hand it back to you?? Am I just very cynical?? Husky helpers Details Type: Private Advert Price: Various Updated: 2 days ago Description Are you at your whitts end with your husky? Has it become jumpy, over excited or hard to control?We can help. You feel you don't have this type of time to devote to your husky, but love him/her and want the best life for it. We are starting a rescue dog cart, where your dog can enjoy a recreational working life. At the age 6-7yrs, when your huskys will take to the pace of home life better, the husky will be offered back to you laid back and ready for home life. My partner and i have a passion for dogs and hope to offer advice and training sessions in the future. We don't judge, any situation, we just want to help. If you would like to know more please e-mail Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valkyries Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 i find that very strange to say the least ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca_&_me Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Well if it were real (not entirely sure its not a scam) I could see the ideas, but I for one would not be willing to hand over a beloved husky to someone for 6 or 7 years. First, they may well work the dogs to death, and second, Id be a stranger to my dog by the time I got him back. What good is that?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snugglescfc Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 it has to be some kind of a scam, before we got yuki we fell for 1 of these where you pay lump sum up front £800 then nothing comes from it. very odd add Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BingBlaze n Skyla Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 hmm i wudnt trust it - val email them ask them for sum more information see what they say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazz Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 That is strange. No way would I give Zoya over to someone that placed an ad like that (or to anyone for that matter). Six or seven years? A lot can happen in that time, and your Husky could end up being "not your Husky". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 they could breed them or anything and you'd never know!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drago Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Sounds like a scam to me It's not written out very well. Either have a up front fee - once you've coughed up thats the last your hear. Or They keep your dog for breeding (or flog to it to a puppy mill) and you'll never see your husky again. With this they may do the first thing above if your dog/b*tch has been snipped.

Val (Zebedee) Posted April 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 that's what I thought, breed them like mad, run them into the ground as they really sound experienced( ) in mushing then return them when they've had the best of them - nah, I don't think so!
